Tropical storm Nadine (14L) remains active in the middle Atlantic Ocean, after having increased in strength a notch to a hurricane this past Friday into the weekend. The NHC shows this long lasting (18+ days) tropical system now having weakened back into a tropical storm this morning. Nadine will be moving over a cooler sea surface soon, and encounter stronger upper level shearing winds too. These influences will finally put an end to its ever lasting presence in the Atlantic…likely occurring by Thursday if not sooner. The Azores may get struck with weakening tropical storm force winds, and heavy rains late Wednesday or Thursday. The NHC has Nadine finally becoming a post-tropical cyclone “again” in 96 hours.
Meanwhile, a new area of disturbed weather has formed about 500 miles southwest of the Cape Verde Islands. This tropical disturbance has a medium 30% chance of developing into a tropical cyclone…within 48 hours or so. This area is being called Invest 96L, and may become a tropical depression by mid-week, although isn’t expected to be a problem for land areas, remaining over the open ocean.
