As the peak of the hurricane season draws closer. the National Hurricane Center is watching a tropical wave over the eastern tropical Atlantic for possible development.
"Environmental conditions appear conducive for gradual development of this system during the next several days, and a tropical depression is likely to form later this week or this weekend," said the NHC Monday.
While there is no immediate impact to our area, residents are urged to use this as a reminder to review their hurricane plans and supplies.
The hurricane season ends on November 30.
