A low pressure system could develop near the Bahamas on Friday or Saturday.\u00a0 The National Hurricane Center is indicating that there is a 70% probability that the low pressure system could develop into a subtropical cyclone.<\/p>\n
A stationary frontal boundary extends from south of Florida across the Bahamas.\u00a0 A small upper level trough called a shortwave over the southwestern U.S. will move east toward the stationary front later this week.\u00a0 When the upper level trough approaches the stationary front, a low pressure system is likely to develop near the Bahamas.\u00a0 If thunderstorms develop near the center of the low pressure system, then it could exhibit the structure of a tropical or subtropical cyclone.\u00a0 The Sea Surface Temperature near the Bahamas is near 26\u00b0C.\u00a0 So, the water will be warm enough to support the development of a tropical cyclone.\u00a0 However, the winds blowing around the upper level trough will cause moderate vertical wind shear.\u00a0 The wind shear may be strong enough to inhibit the development of a tropical cyclone.\u00a0 However, the shear may not be strong enough to prevent the development of a subtropical cyclone.\u00a0 If the low pressure system strengthens into a subtropical storm, it will be designated Subtropical Storm Arthur.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
