Tracking the tropics:

The Storm Station is keeping a close eye on the tropics so you do not have too.

We are watching remnants of TS Cindy with overall low chance for further development. Even if this broad area of convection develops it will NOT impact the local viewing area.

Southwestern Atlantic Ocean (Remnants of Cindy):
A weak area of low pressure, associated with the remnants of Cindy,
continues to produce disorganized showers and a few thunderstorms
about 400 miles to the south of Bermuda. Strong upper-level winds
are currently preventing redevelopment of this system, and these
environmental conditions are only expected to become marginally
favorable for some gradual development later this week. The system
is forecast to move generally northward over the western Atlantic,
passing near Bermuda on Thursday or Friday.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
