The Atlantic hurricane basin is showing signs of increased activity after a quiet start to August, with the National Hurricane Center monitoring three potential areas for development. One system, located southwest of the Cabo Verde Islands, has an 80% chance of developing into a tropical depression. Another system in the central subtropical Atlantic has a 50% chance of forming a short-lived tropical storm, while a third tropical wave off the coast of West Africa has a 20% chance of development. Despite this awakening, NOAA still forecasts below-normal activity for the season, with the potential storms aligning with typical formation dates. AI
