Here’s what’s happening in the tropics

Peak of hurricane season is Sept. 10

ORLANDO, Fla. – We are pinpointing two areas of development in the tropics.

An area near the Lesser Antilles has an 80% chance of development over the next five days. It will likely remain out to sea, however, as all the computer models show it recurving in the coming days.

We are also pinpointing an area of low pressure moving off the coast of Africa. It has a 40% chance of development over the next five days. It’s too early to tell where the system will head.

The next two named storms will be called Danielle and Earl.

The peak of hurricane season is Sept. 10.

Hurricane season runs through November.
