STRONG LATE SEASON TROPICAL WAVE NEAR CABO VERDE ISLANDS HAS A FORMATION CHANCE WITHIN 5-DAYS LOW 20%

MOST OF THE STORMS THAT DEVELOP IN THE EAST ATLANTIC THIS TIME OF YEAR CURVE TO THE NORTHWEST AND NORTHEAST OVER THE OPEN WATERS OF THE NORTH ATLANTIC.  HOWEVER, SEEING THAT THESE HIGHS CONTINUE ROLLING OFF THE EAST COAST OF THE U.S., AND OVER THE ATLANTIC, THIS COULD BLOCK ANY NORTHWARD TRACK AND TURNED THE STORM TOWARD THE WEST.  IT WILL BE WATCHED, BUT AT THIS TIME NOTHING TO BE CONCERNED ABOUT.

Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
200 PM EDT Thu Oct 8 2020

For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:

The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Hurricane 
Delta, located over the south-central Gulf of Mexico.

A vigorous tropical wave located a few hundred miles south of the 
Cabo Verde Islands is producing a large area of disorganized 
showers and thunderstorms, along with tropical-storm-force wind 
gusts. This disturbance is expected to move generally westward at 
about 15 mph over the tropical Atlantic for the next several days. 
Environmental conditions could become more conducive for some 
gradual development to occur by early next week when the system is 
located well east of the Lesser Antilles. By the middle and latter 
part of the week, upper-level winds are forecast to increase and 
become unfavorable for tropical cyclone formation.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...20 percent.
