Tropics Settle Down Again


A tropical wave the National Hurricane Center said bore watching doesn’t seem to have forecasters’ interest any longer.

The wave the center was watching Tuesday no longer is in today’s Tropical Outlook.

On Tuesday the wave had some thunderstorm activity, at least enough to mention. Forecasters said that the upper-level winds were not good for the wave to develop, and it seems they were right.

The wave is still moving toward the Lesser Antilles and should bring weather to the islands on today and maybe Puerto Rico on Friday. But forecasters don’t think it will grow into anything that will get a name.

So the outlook for today has those words we love: “Tropical cyclone formation is not expected during the next 48 hours.”

We’ll take that any time.
