New Tropical Disturbance in the Atlantic Ocean Could Develop into Hurricane

A new tropical disturbance is being monitored in the eastern Atlantic Ocean, which could become a tropical depression or Tropical Storm Beryl this weekend. The new disturbance to the south has a 20% chance of developing over the next week as it moves westward across the central and western tropical Atlantic. Computer models show the storm could develop into a hurricane next week. There is uncertainty about how strong it could become and where it will go after impacting the Caribbean.
