According to the latest National Hurricane Advisory, a tropical wave that originated east of the Windward Islands over the weekend is still generating showers and thunderstorms. However, there have been no significant changes in its development.
On Tuesday morning, the tropical disturbance was on its way to Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula, which was the location where Hurricane Beryl hit before making landfall in Texas at the beginning of the previous month.
According to the latest advisory, the system’s development is expected to be gradual over the next few days as it moves towards the central Caribbean Sea. However, there is a possibility of favorable environmental conditions for its growth later this week, as it progresses towards the western Caribbean Sea or the southern Gulf of Mexico. It is advised to keep a close eye on any updates regarding this system.
