Formerly Tropical Storm Sean has just been downgraded to a Tropical Depression as it spins in the eastern Atlantic Ocean.

As Sean is weakening, another system is trailing behind it with a better chance of strengthening during the next few days. The tropical disturbance, Invest 94L, has been given a 90% of development by the National Hurricane Center.

We could soon have our next named storm of the season as the environment ahead of Invest 94L is favorable for a tropical system. If it reaches tropical storm strength, it will be named Tammy.

Waters in the western and central Atlantic are running well into the 80s, which is prime for additional strengthening. Invest 94L will move on a mostly westward track and wind shear will not be much an issue for the storm.

As for Tropical Depression Sean, the storm is forecast to slowly weaken the next few days. It is spinning more than 1,000 miles east of the Lesser Antilles with sustained winds of 35mph.

As Invest 94L continues on its path, we will be closely watching as this storm looks to be taking a more southerly route.

The National Hurricane Center is monitoring a tropical wave in the far eastern tropical Atlantic several hundred miles south-southeast of the Cabo Verde Islands. Invest 92L, as its being called, is currently just an area of disorganized showers and thunderstorms. However, environmental conditions appear conducive for development and a tropical depression is likely to form by the middle of the week as the system continues to move westward.

The National Hurricane Center is giving the area a 30% chance of development over the next 2 days and 80% chance over the next 7 days, as of Sunday morning. If it becomes a tropical storm, it would be given the name Sean.
