Odds increase that Tropical Storm Gabrielle could form in Atlantic this week
The National Hurricane Center is monitoring a tropical wave swirling across the central tropical Atlantic that now has high odds of developing into a tropical depression or Tropical Storm Gabrielle later this week.
By mid- to late-week, the system will move into a more favorable environment, where it will likely develop into at least a tropical depression, and maybe even Tropical Storm Gabrielle. Some computer forecast models show the system strengthening into a hurricane.
