The first area has been under the eyes of the National Hurricane Center for a few days as it emerged off Africa’s west coast.

Powerful Hurricane Erin is expected to bring high seas, big rip currents, and rough surf as it moves between the United States and Bermuda.

Besides Erin, we are monitoring two areas of interest in the Atlantic Basin. Both are in the main development region of the Atlantic Ocean. The first has a 60% chance of tropical development over the next 7 days. The latest forecast track keeps this on a similar path as Erin initially, but a little farther to the east once it makes the turn.

Hurricane Erin lashes Bahamas and Turks and Caicos with winds, rain, and flooding as forecasters track a new Atlantic tropical threat.

FOX Weather Meteorologist Craig Herrera tracks the next system that has a medium chance of tropical development behind Hurricane Erin in the Atlantic Ocean's Main Development Region.

“Some gradual development of this system is possible during hte middle to latter portion of thw eeek while the system moves westward to west-northwestward at 15 to 20 mph across teh eastern and central tropical Atlantic,” the hurricane center said.

Forecasters are tracking a new disturbance in the Atlantic Ocean as Hurricane Erin, a Category 5 storm, undergoes an eyewall replacement cycle, according to a Saturday night update from the National Hurricane Center.

Forecasters are monitoring two other tropical systems in the Atlantic Ocean on Aug. 19 as the heart of the 2025 hurricane season approaches.
