The 2022 hurricane season isn’t over quite yet. The National Weather Service (NWS) is watching a tropical wave spreading from the Atlantic through the eastern Caribbean that may become a tropical depression early next week if conditions allow a well-defined center to form.
The tropical wave, a group of showers and thunderstorms, is moving slowly westward into warm waters that may allow development, according to the National Hurricane Center (NHC).
The NHC is still tracking a tropical wave in the southwest Atlantic that has the potential to become a tropical depression but probably won’t, forecasters said.
“In terms of impact on the U.S., effects will be limited to rough surf, rip currents and minor coastal flooding around times of high tide along the beaches of the Southeast and mid-Atlantic states through the weekend,” states AccuWeather Senior Meteorologist Dan Pydynowski.
The next two names on the list for the 2022 Atlantic hurricane season are Lisa and Martin.
