Oscar Soon To Form In The Open Atlantic

Hurricane season is on the downswing, but it’s not over yet. It looks like Tropical Storm Oscar will form at some point in the next couple of days. The good news is that it’s in the open Atlantic and shouldn’t come anywhere near the U.S. mainland.

This time of year, East Coast troughs become increasingly more common – which often act as a barrier and usher storms into the North Atlantic. That looks to be the case with this storm and the only land area that really needs to keep an eye on it is Bermuda. Development chances are at 70% in the next 48 hours, 80% in the next 5 days.

Things are quiet elsewhere in the Atlantic.
