Tropical Systems Monitored as Hurricane Season Peak Approaches
The National Hurricane Center is monitoring a tropical wave over Florida and three disturbances in the Atlantic as the peak of hurricane season approaches. The closest system to the Lowcountry is a tropical wave near the Bahamas, which is expected to move across Florida and into the Gulf of Mexico. Another disturbance west of the Cabo Verde Islands has a high chance of development, while two other systems closer to the eastern seaboard have lower chances. Meanwhile, Hurricane Hillary, a Category 4 hurricane, is expected to bring heavy rain to parts of California.
