NHC Monitors a Low-Pressure System Near Bermuda
As Hurricane Milton makes its way over Florida tonight, a low-pressure system near Bermuda poses little threat of becoming yet another tropical storm in the state’s path. According to the National Hurricane Center (NHC), a low-pressure system is located a few hundred miles south-southwest of Bermuda, just over the state of Florida.
The circulation of the system is becoming increasingly elongated, and environmental conditions are becoming “less favourable for any tropical or subtropical development,” the NHC reported. Its chances of developing into a cyclone have fluctuated between 20% and 40%, with the National Hurricane Center (NHC) now estimating a 30% likelihood of further development within the next 48 hours. However, forecasters indicate that those odds are decreasing.
“Upper-level winds are expected to become too strong for further development tonight or into Thursday,” the NHC reported this afternoon.
The next tropical storm to form will carry the name Nadine.
