It comes as no surprise that activity is beginning to stir in the tropical regions of the western Atlantic. As i mentioned in my post from last week, the start of August signals the start of the busier time of year for tropical weather. There are two features being watched. The first is Tropical Depression 3 east of Bermuda. It is an area of low pressure which has slowly become more organized. Its window of opportunity for development to a tropical storm is starting to close as this low should get absorbed by a cold front and get shoved rapidly northeast off the US coast. It could affect the Canadian Maritimes as a tropical storm. The second area to watch is a tropical wave that is getting better organized a couple of hundred miles east of the Lesser Antilles. Computer model guidance is suggesting a general west-northwest movement as it moves into the warm waters of the Caribbean Sea. Some further development is possible.
