We’ve been watching Invest 99L while it moves over the warm waters of the eastern Caribbean, but it is not looking impressive Monday morning.

The odds have dropped to zero for Invest 99L to develop. Showers and thunderstorms associated with the area have continued to remain unorganized since Sunday.

Invest 99L will bring gusty winds and rain to the Windward Islands as the system quickly moves west the next few days.

The last week of August is featuring a rather quiet Atlantic Basin.

The only other area of interest is Tropical Storm Fernand. It strengthened slightly with sustained winds up to 50 mph.

Fernand is about 550 miles ENE of Bermuda. The storm is moving north-northeast at 12 mph and will not make any impact to land as it moves across the open Atlantic.

September 10 is the climatological peak of the Atlantic hurricane season.

Tropical Storm Fernand is about 500 miles SE of Bermuda with 40 mph sustained winds.

This storm will not make any impact to land as it stays out in the Atlantic, moving north-northeast at 15 mph.

Some additional strengthening is possible through Tuesday but Fernand is expected to stay a tropical storm as it passes well east of Bermuda.

There’s another area we’re watching for development that’s currently about 200 miles east of the Windward Islands.

Invest 99L has a medium chance for development in the coming days as the area quickly moves west into the Caribbean.

Gusty winds and heavy rain will move across the Windward and Leeward Islands today into Monday.

Hurricane Hunters may fly into Invest 99L later today if the system looks more organized.
