The next name on the Atlantic hurricane season list is poised to be checked off this weekend as National Hurricane Center forecasters predict a tropical depression or tropical storm to develop.
The tropics have been showing signs of some activity as June nears its end and the NHC is keeping a close eye on two disturbances: one set to move into the Gulf of Mexico and the other impacting the eastern Atlantic Ocean.
The first system, designated as Invest 94-L, could impact the western Caribbean and southwestern Gulf of Mexico. It's currently sitting in the west-central Caribbean Sea. The disturbance is producing disorganized shower activity and is quickly moving to the west-northwest at 15 mph.
NHC forecasters say environmental conditions could become more favorable for tropical development over the weekend as it moves over the western Caribbean or southwestern Gulf of Mexico. But it's not a high chance for development.
As of Thursday morning, there's only a 10% chance of development over the next 48 hours and 30% over the next week.
