National Hurricane Center Monitors Developing Atlantic System and Two Tropical Waves
Anonymous
The National Hurricane Center in Miami is tracking a low-pressure system over the central subtropical Atlantic that could develop into the sixth named storm, potentially called Fay, according to PNJ. Forecasters are also monitoring two tropical waves in the same region, though no named storms have reached the U.S. coast so far in the 2026 Atlantic hurricane season.
System Could Strengthen Mid-to-Late Week
The low-pressure system sits over the central subtropical Atlantic with a gradual development timeline, according to Herald Tribune. Forecasters expect it to move west-northwestward across the subtropics over the coming days. The center has assigned meteorologists to track its movement and intensity closely.
Two Tropical Waves Under Close Watch
Beyond the main low-pressure system, Jacksonville.com reports that meteorologists are monitoring two separate tropical waves moving across the Atlantic basin. These waves could develop into named systems as the season progresses. The National Hurricane Center expanded monitoring to include all three disturbances as a precaution.
2026 Season Remains Quiet for U.S. Landfalls
So far this hurricane season, no named storms have made landfall on the U.S. mainland, according to Naples News. The National Hurricane Center resumed its official tropics advisories on May 15, marking the official start of the monitoring season. This early-season activity reflects typical Atlantic patterns for the period.
