NOAA Raises 2012 Hurricane Season Prediction
NOAA says that Tropical Depression 7 could strengthen to a tropical storm by Friday. Tropical
Depression 7 is located 1045 miles east of the
Windward Islands in the Atlantic Ocean moving west at 20 miles per hour with maximum sustained
winds of 35 miles per hour.
The remnants of Tropical Storm Florence (marked as number 1 above) is located over the eastern tropical Atlantic several hundred miles north of Puerto Rico and moving northwestward at 10 to 15 miles per hour. Although upper-level winds may become more conducive over the next couple of days, NOAA predicts a low (10%) chance of this system redeveloping into a tropical cyclone within the next 48 hours.
Another system, a tropical wave marked as number 2 above, is accompanied by an area of low pressure. NOAA says that conditions appear conducive for the development of this system into a tropical depression as it moves west-northwestward at around 15 miles per hour. This system has a medium chance (50 %) of becoming a tropical cyclone during the next 48 hours.
NOAA's storm tracker has Tropical Depression 7 following nearly the identical path as Tropical Storm Ernesto.
