Atlantic tropical depression could form this week, says NHC
Wednesday, September 27, 2006
NEW YORK, USA (Reuters): A tropical depression could form in the Atlantic late Tuesday or Wednesday, the National Hurricane Center said in an outlook issued Tuesday.
Even if it forms, however, the major weather models forecast the disturbance, which is heading east-northeast, would turn away from the United States near Bermuda and remain over open ocean waters, following the paths of Hurricanes Florence, Gordon and Helene.
The NHC said the disturbance is located about 925 miles east-northeast of the northern Leeward Islands and that "atmospheric conditions are expected to become a little more favorable for development."
The Leeward Islands include the Virgin Islands, Anguilla, St. Martin, Saba, Saint Eustatius, Saint Barthelemy, Antigua, Barbuda, Saint Kitts, Nevis, Montserrat, Guadeloupe and Dominica.
