More areas of concern
The NHC is also looking at two more areas for potential tropical activity this Sunday morning. One off the east coast of the US and another, larger, area that is currently in the Atlantic off the coast of South America. We will be traveling today but will keep an eye on these and post whatever updates we can as soon as we can.
FOR THE NORTH ATLANTIC...CARIBBEAN SEA AND THE GULF OF MEXICO...
THE NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER IS ISSUING ADVISORIES ON RECENTLY-DOWNGRADED TROPICAL STORM BERTHA...LOCATED ABOUT 220 MILES SOUTHEAST OF BERMUDA.
1. AN AREA OF DISTURBED WEATHER HAS FORMED OVER THE TROPICAL ATLANTIC ABOUT 1600 MILES EAST OF THE SOUTHERN WINDWARD ISLANDS. CONDITIONS APPEAR FAVORABLE FOR ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT OF THIS SYSTEM DURING THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS.
2. SHOWER ACTIVITY HAS INCREASED THIS MORNING IN ASSOCIATION WITH A WEAK FRONTAL LOW PRESSURE AREA CENTERED ABOUT 130 MILES SOUTHEAST OF CHARLESTON SOUTH CAROLINA. SLOW DEVELOPMENT OF THIS SYSTEM IS POSSIBLE DURING THE NEXT DAY OR TWO AS MOVES SLOWLY TO THE NORTHEAST.
ELSEWHERE...TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION IS NOT EXPECTED DURING THE NEXT 48 HOURS.
