After Weeks of Inactivity, Federal Forecasters Eye 3 Potential Cyclones in the Atlantic
The Atlantic hurricane season has been quiet so far, with only two tropical storms forming, but federal forecasters are now monitoring three potential cyclones in the Atlantic Basin. The National Hurricane Center is tracking these disturbances, with one having a 60% chance of development over the next week. Despite the low activity, forecasters are paying close attention to these disturbances, as it only takes one landfalling storm to cause significant damage.
