A tropical wave (INVEST 94L) is being monitored by meteorologists over the central tropical Atlantic. According to the National Hurricane Center, it could form a tropical depression early to mid-next week.
As this system moves westward over the tropical Atlantic, it will approach the Windward Islands by Tuesday and move into the southeastern Caribbean Sea by Wednesday.
During the next 48 hours, it has a 30 percent chance of forming, and over the next five days, that chance increases to 60 percent.
Notice the breaks in the Saharan dust. That is where we find these two waves. The one on the right is Invest 94L, which is being monitored for development next week.#HurricaneSeason2022 #Invest94L https://t.co/mKTLWfYZLB
