Good morning.
TD # 6 formed yesterday in the eastern Atlantic. It is currently located at 13.2 N and 35.2 W and is moving NW @ 15 mph with 35 mph winds. It is expected to become Tropical Storm Fiona later today. The NHC is currently forecasting it to head NW toward a weakness in high pressure to its north and miss the US entirely. In 2 days it will encounter significant shear and may dissipate. It is possible that the high pressure to its north could strengthen and push it further west, if it still exists, potentially threatening the US. Unless that happens I do not anticipate needing to write further about this system.
Matt.
