Tropical Cyclone Dexter

DEXTER MOVING NORTHEAST AWAY FROM THE U.S. EAST COAST WITH LITTLE CHANGE IN STRENGTH

According to the NHC advisory number 3

Dexter is moving toward the northeast near 14 mph (22 km/h). A similar northeastward or east-northeastward motion is expected over the next few days. Maximum sustained winds are near 45 mph (75 km/h) with higher gusts. Some slight strengthening is forecast during the next couple of days, but Dexter is likely to become a post-tropical cyclone by the middle to latter portion of this week. Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 105 miles (165 km) from the center.

Central Tropical Atlantic:

>>> A tropical wave moving off the west coast of Africa is currently producing only limited shower activity. In a few days, environmental conditions are forecast to become favorable for gradual development of this system, and a tropical depression could form by the latter portion of this week as it moves generally west-northwestward across the central tropical Atlantic.

* Formation chance through 48 hours…low…near 0 percent
* Formation chance through 7 days…medium…50 percent

Some gradual development of this system is possible during the middle or latter portion of this week as the system drifts slowly westward to northwestward.
