The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Hurricane Sam, located about 900 miles east-southeast of the northern Leeward Islands – www.nhc.noaa.gov/#Sam.

Elsewhere over the Atlantic basin on this Sunday morning, NHC is watching three areas for potential tropical cyclone formation. They include:

1) An elongated area of disorganized showers and thunderstorms associated with the remnants of Peter is located a few hundred miles southeast of Bermuda. Upper-level winds only appear marginally conducive for some slow development of this disturbance during the next couple of days as it moves northeastward at about 10 mph. It has a low (20 percent) chance of formation during the next 48 hours and five days.

2) A tropical wave is expected to move off the west coast of Africa on Monday. Environmental conditions are forecast to be conducive for gradual development thereafter, and a tropical depression could form by midweek while the system moves westward to west-northwestward at 10 to 15 mph over the far eastern tropical Atlantic. It has a low (20 percent) chance of formation during the next 48 hours and a medium (60 percent) chance during the next five days.

3) A broad area of low pressure could form over the eastern or central tropical Atlantic early this week, to the west of the tropical wave that will be moving off the coast of Africa. Thereafter, environmental conditions could support some development of this disturbance while it moves westward at 5 to 10 mph through the middle of the week. It has a near zero chance of formation during the next 48 hours and a low (30 percent) chance during the next five days. www.hurricanes.gov

SAM est un puissant ouragan de catégorie 4.
Les prévisions de ce dimanche matin montre une trajectoire nord-est éloignée de l’arc antillais. C’est une bonne nouvelle pour les îles du nord mais il convient de rester vigilant et de continuer à s’informer et à se préparer.
