Forecasters are monitoring a potential tropical system forming in the northwestern Caribbean Sea, with a low chance of development over the next seven days. The system could slowly develop as it moves north or northwest into the Gulf of Mexico, potentially becoming Tropical Storm Helene. This potential storm is associated with the Central American gyre, a large, weak low-pressure area that can contribute to tropical development, especially in late spring and early fall. The National Hurricane Center and meteorologists indicate varying model predictions for the system's path and strength, with possibilities ranging from minimal development to a significant storm impacting the U.S. Forecasters are also monitoring the remnants of Tropical Storm Gordon in the central Atlantic, which has a 60% chance of re-developing but poses no threat to land.
