BREVARD COUNTY, FLORIDA – National Hurricane Center (NHC) is monitoring two disturbances in the Atlantic that have developed in the past 48 hours, according to the latest report by NHC.

The first disturbance, located just off the shores of Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, is expected to produce heavy rainfall on the islands.

Conditions could become marginally conducive for more development late this week when the disturbance moves near Florida

However, with only a 10-percent chance of developing into tropical storm in the next five days, Florida’s Space Coast could see some rain showers over the weekend.

The second disturbance is located about a several hundred miles south of the Cabo Verde Islands. It is currently producing rain showers and is moving to the west at 15-20 mph.

While experts at the National Hurricane Center don’t expect significant development with this system in the next couple of days, they caution there is a 20-percent chance of formation in five days when upper-level winds become more favorable for a storm system.
