Now Tracking Invest 97. Happy Labor Day weekend everybody! The tropics remain quiet as we approach the peak of the hurricane season on September 10. As of now, there have been no hurricanes in the Atlantic.
Today, we are watching newly formed Invest 97. This area of low pressure is in the Central Atlantic approaching the Lesser Antilles. The system has a low chance of developing over the next 5 days. We will keep a watch on the system although it poses no immediate threat to anybody in the immediate future.
The system seems to be impacted by a upper level wind shear which is keeping it from developing. The convection has increased over the past 24 hours, however, and a slight spin is now noted in the cloud formation.
We will now begin tracking this system as it approaches the Caribbean. Another area of interest is just coming off the African coast but we do not expect anything to come of that system at present.
