The NEXT Weather team is tracking three areas in the tropics, one of which could become the first hurricane of the 2025 Atlantic season.

A tropical wave in the eastern Atlantic has been given a high potential (90% chance) for development over the next two to seven days by the National Hurricane Center.

This wave continues to get better organized with a well-defined area of low pressure located just to the west of the Cabo Verde Islands. This system is likely to become a tropical depression or Tropical Storm Erin, possibly as soon as late Monday morning.

Locally heavy rainfall and gusty winds are expected to continue across portions of the Cabo Verde Islands. Interests there should monitor the progress of this system.

This could form into first hurricane of the season. NEXT Weath
