The National Hurricane Center has upgraded the tropical wave in the east Atlantic (formerly 99L Invest). Tropical Depression Two has maximum sustained winds of 30mph and its heading west at 13mph. The current intensity forecast shows gradual strengthening to 60mph over the next 5 days. Sea surface temperatures are currently marginal, but wind shear is very light. TD2 is forecast to be steered westward by a strong high to the north for the next several days. Thereafter, a trough may recurve the tropical cyclone, but it is too far out to say for certain. The images on the left are time sensitive.
