WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — While Post-tropical Helene continues to bring rain to both the Ohio and Tennessee Valleys - the Atlantic Basin is busy with four additional areas we're currently tracking

Hurricane Issac will move into the north Atlantic and dissipate. No threat to anyone.

South of Isaac, Tropical Storm Joyce formed on Friday morning, but it won't bother anyone either.

In the southern Caribbean, there's a tropical wave that has a 30% chance of developing as we head into the next seven days.
We'll continue to watch this area for low pressure to form over the western Caribbean Sea by the middle of next week. Conditions are expected to be conducive for slow development while the system moves generally northwestward.

And finally - a broad area of low pressure associated with a tropical wave is located just west of the Cabo Verde Islands. Conditions will be conducive for slow development. A tropical depression could form next week as it moves NW at 10 mph across the tropical Atlantic.
