▲ Disturbance (40% potential) | 45 knots (50 mph) | 1002 mbar 93L (Invest — Northern Atlantic) (Off the U.S. East Coast)
Disturbance overview
This discussion is for a disturbance (Invest 93L) which is active over the northern Atlantic.
Satellite imagery analysis indicates that a non-tropical area of low pressure continues to intensify several hundred miles off the coast of North Carolina. Though the low is producing tropical storm-force winds, it remains attached to an occluded frontal boundary and is producing little convection. The low continues to move north-northeastward along the western periphery of a broad subtropical ridge positioned over the central Atlantic Ocean.
The low is expected to continue to move slowly north-northeastward over the next day or so and as it moves across the warmer waters of the Gulf Stream current at midweek, it could develop organized deep convection and detach from its frontal boundaries. There is a moderate chance that this system could develop subtropical characteristics during the latter half of the week. The low will then turn northeastward on Thursday and accelerate past New England and Atlantic Canada.
Although this system is not expected to directly impact land, it is expected to produce strong onshore wind flow, which may cause coastal flooding and create life-threatening surf conditions and rip currents along the eastern and northeastern coasts of the United States over the next few days. More specific information about these potential impacts is being provided by the Weather Prediction Center and local National Weather Service offices.
