Low pressure affects the minor Antilles

To the north of the Caribbean, but far from the coasts of the United States and Bahamas, the tropical storm Fernand continues northern course with sustained winds of 40 miles per hour.

On the other hand, the National Hurricanes Center reports that a low pressure area, located east of the Minors could continue its west course towards the Caribbean Sea and that, once between in warmer waters, could reach the category of tropical storm with more than 40% probability.

Meanwhile, low pressure could carry strong rains to the small central islands of the Antillean arch.

The cyclonic season began on June 1 and ends on November 30. These dates, adopted by convention, historically describe the period of each year in which most cyconic phenomena in the Atlantic Ocean are produced.

The first cyclone of the year, the tropical storm Andrea, was formed on June 23, which marks the latest beginning of a cyclonic season in the Atlantic since 2014.

Shortly after, the tropical storm Barry formed, which rapidly played land in Veracruz, Mexico.

In July, the tropical storm Chantal hit the east coast of the United States and in August, Hurricane Erin reached category 5, with winds of up to 160 mph (260 km/h), but fortunately it did not touch any land.
