MIAMI – An area of disturbed weather in the eastern Atlantic Ocean has started its long journey west, and forecasters with the National Hurricane Center (NHC) say it could move into an area that’s favorable for tropical development.The disturbance, designated Invest 94L by the NHC, is located several hundred miles west of the Cabo Verde Islands. It brought tropical-storm-force winds and heavy rain to the archipelago Friday night. WHAT IS AN INVEST?The NHC said on Sunday that shower and thunderstorm activity associated with the area of low pressure has diminished again in association with the disturbance, and although it’s located over an area that isn’t conducive for development, that could change later this week.”This system is currently embedded in an unfavorable environment and development is not anticipated over the next couple of days,” the NHC said. “However, this system is forecast to move generally westward to west-southwestward, and environmental conditions could become more favorable for additional development by the mid- to latter part of this week.”Right now, the NHC is giving the system a medium chance of development over the next week. A tropical depression could form as the system approaches the Leeward Islands by the end of the week.
