The National Hurricane Center on Friday continued to keep track of two systems in the Atlantic that could become the season’s next tropical depression or storm.
As of the NHC’s 8 a.m. tropical advisory, the closest was a weak area of low pressure located a couple hundred miles offshore of North Carolina with a few disorganized showers and thunderstorms.
“Development of this system, if any, is expected to be slow to occur over the next day or two while it moves northeastward at 10 to 15 mph. The low is likely to merge with a front over the weekend, ending its chances for tropical or subtropical development,” forecasters said.
