Storm Dolly Could Form Within Days as Low Crosses the Atlantic

Summary

A weather system in the Atlantic Ocean may develop into Tropical Storm Dolly in the next few days. Experts say it has a medium chance of forming but face challenges like dry air and wind that could stop its growth or change its path.

Key Facts

  • The National Hurricane Center (NHC) gave the system a 60% chance to develop into a tropical storm within 48 hours and seven days.
  • The system, called AL96, is located southwest of Cabo Verde in the Atlantic Ocean.
  • Conditions might allow it to become a tropical depression as it moves west or west-northwest.
  • By the weekend, conditions are expected to become less favorable for storm formation.
  • If the storm forms, it may reach the Lesser Antilles around Sunday or early next week.
  • The potential storm could either move north out to sea or stay closer to the islands and possibly near the Bahamas.
  • Effects on the U.S., if any, would likely happen at the end of next week or later.
  • The next storm name, Dolly, was chosen years ago and is unrelated to country singer Dolly Parton's recent death.
