Next tropical depression forming?
We have been watching a disturbed area of weather for almost three days now in the southeast Caribbean Sea. The first few days were of little concern. There did not appear to be a low level circulation and climatology is not in favor of a tropical cyclone developing there. Today a bigger cluster of deep convection is centered farther north in the eastern Caribbean. This one appears to also not yet have an organized surface low. This area will be watched closely today!
As of 11 am edt / ast the tropical disturbance was centered in the eastern Caribbean very roughly near 15.0° N / 66.0° W or about 200 miles south of Puerto Rico. Top sustained winds are estimated at 30 mph. Movement is west at roughly 15-20 mph. Pressure estimated at 1008 mb.
