Two new areas of interest
Tropical Storm Fay weakened somewhat overnight as it slogged slowly westward across the northern Florida peninsula, headed toward the panhandle and a possible re-emergence over the water of the northern Gulf of Mexico. Maximum winds had decreased by 8 am to 45 mph and remained the same at 11 am; little change in strength is expected through tonight. Movement is toward the west at 5 mph from a position about 40 miles northeast of Cedar Key, Florida.Image: St. Augustine radar from My-Cast
Meanwhile, two new areas of interest in the tropical Atlantic are given a medium potential for development by the National Hurricane Center:
- A disorganized stormy area about 400 miles east of the Windward Islands: Conditions are expected to gradually become favorable for development.
- A tropical wave about halfway between African and the Lesser Antilles: Some development is possible in the next couple of days.
