Hurricane prognosticators have predicted a busier-than-normal season for storms in the second half of hurricane season, which happens as COVID cases hit record levels.
If it's not one thing, then it's another for Florida this summer. As the state deals with record numbers of COVID-19 cases with the lurking Delta variant, there are two weather patterns in the Atlantic Ocean that could turn into tropical depressions this week. And both could have Florida in their sights.
The National Hurricane Center on Sunday evening stated the two systems in the eastern Atlantic could likely develop into tropical depressions, and perhaps later as tropical storms. There is no certain cone path yet beyond the next five days, but each of their current locations—both east and south of the Lesser Antilles—could set them up for landfalls along the U.S.'s Gulf of Mexico border if weather patterns and water temperatures dictate it.
"However, environmental conditions are expected to be conducive for gradual development over the next few days, and a tropical depression could form while the low moves west-northwestward at about 15 mph," the forecast read. It could reach Hispaniola, or maybe even Cuba, by the middle of the week, setting the storm up for a potential Florida landfall by the weekend.
