The Tropics

Invest 92L is currently located to the north-northeast of the Turks and Caicos Islands, and has shown some signs of strengthening. Winds are near tropical storm force but the disturbance still lacks a well-defined center. Some development may occur today and tomorrow, but further development after that will be highly unfavorable as it will merge with a frontal system. At this point, there is only a 40% chance of it developing into a tropical depression or storm.
