NHC Monitoring Two Areas for Tropical Development in Atlantic and Pacific

The National Hurricane Center (NHC) is monitoring two areas of interest for potential tropical development. In the Atlantic, an area of low pressure is expected to form along a weakening frontal boundary a few hundred miles south of Bermuda over the next day or so, with a low (30%) chance of subtropical development over the next seven days. In the Pacific, a broad area of low pressure east-southeast of the Hawaiian Islands has a high (70%) chance of forming into a tropical depression during the middle to latter portions of this week. There are currently no active tropical cyclones in either basin.
