Tropics

Tropical wave ’91-L’ continues moving slowly over the Eastern Atlantic and has a good shot at becoming tropical storm “Gabrielle”.

There may be a threat to parts of the Northeast Caribbean mid to late next week. It’s too early to forecast beyond that point, though the models have shown a general westward shift but vary *widely* in their respective outcomes.
