BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2021 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — Nothing to worry about yet, but two of the three systems you see on the map above may soon become tropical depressions. Where they go and what they do remains unclear, but meteorologists at the National Hurricane Center are closely watching the systems that may strengthen over the next several days.

From the NHC on Sunday morning, August 8, 2021:

For the North Atlantic…Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:

1. An area of low pressure is producing disorganized showers and
   thunderstorms over the tropical Atlantic several hundred miles east
   of the Windward Islands. Environmental conditions are expected
   to be favorable to support some gradual development, and this
   system could become a tropical depression while it moves west-
   northwestward at 10 to 15 mph. The disturbance is forecast to
   reach portions of the Lesser Antilles late Monday and then move
   across the eastern Caribbean Sea and Greater Antilles through the
   middle of this week. Interests in those areas should monitor the
   progress of this system, as it could bring locally heavy rainfall
   and gusty winds to portions of that area.

• Formation chance through 48 hours…low…30 percent.
• Formation chance through 5 days…medium…40 percent.

1. Showers and thunderstorms associated with an area of low pressure
   located over the tropical Atlantic about midway between the Cabo
   Verde Islands and the Lesser Antilles have become more concentrated
   since yesterday. Environmental conditions are expected to become a
   little more favorable for gradual development, and this system
   could become a tropical depression within the next few days. The
   system is forecast to move slowly toward the west-southwest or west
   during the next couple of days, and then move a little faster toward
   the west by mid-week.

• Formation chance through 48 hours…low…30 percent.
• Formation chance through 5 days…medium…40 percent.

1. Showers and thunderstorms associated with a broad area of low
   pressure located about a hundred miles west of the southwesternmost
   Cabo Verde Islands have diminished since yesterday. Strong
   upper-level winds and cooler waters are expected to prevent the
   development of this system while it moves toward the west or
   west-northwest.

• Formation chance through 48 hours…low…near 0 percent.
• Formation chance through 5 days…low…near 0 percent.
