The National Hurricane Center (NHC) began monitoring a storm moving across the Atlantic Ocean on Friday.
According to the report of the NHC At 2 a.m. on July 28, the phenomenon is located near the Lesser and Greater Antilles.
The full NHC report states:
A low pressure system in the central tropical Atlantic is forecast to interact with a tropical wave during the next few days. Conditions are favorable for gradual development, with the possibility of a tropical depression forming by midweek over the northern Leeward Islands, the Greater Antilles, or the southwestern Atlantic.
The probability of formation in 48 hours is low, close to 0%, while in the next 7 days it is estimated at 40%.
Disturbance in the Atlantic: Cuba is on alert
Cuban journalist Lázaro Manuel Alonso drew attention to this in Facebooksuggesting that Cuba should be on the lookout for this disruption next week.
“In the season forecasts it was said that a cyclone would hit us. Will it be this one? I hope not,” said one of the users in response to her post.
Fortunately for the island, Hurricane Beryl, which became the most intense hurricane on record for a month of June in the tropical Atlantic basin, passed unnoticed through southern Cuba. However, the authorities in the country will have to closely monitor the evolution of this disturbance.
Weather in Cuba
Over the next three days, Cuba will remain under the influence of atmospheric conditions conducive to the formation of showers and thunderstorms, mainly during the afternoon and early evening hours. These precipitations, accompanied by electrical activity, are a common phenomenon during this season.
Temperatures are expected to remain high and stable, ranging between 32 and 35 degrees Celsius.
