TRACKING THE TROPICS: Hurricane Center | Hurricane Guide
Usually we don’t start looking for tropical development this far out in the Atlantic until August and September when conditions become more favorable. That’s also when it’s more common to see tropical waves roll off the coast of Africa every 3-5 days.
Development during June and July is typically a bit closer to home in the Gulf of Mexico or the Caribbean.
Another tropical wave in the Eastern Atlantic and a tropical wave in the Gulf of Mexico have low formation chances with just 20% and 30% respectively over five days.
The next name up on the 2022 Atlantic Hurricane List is Bonnie.
