The National Hurricane Center is watching three areas across the Atlantic this week: one near Portugal, one near Bermuda and one off the Cabo Verde Islands. Each carries a 30% chance of development or less over the next seven days. Odds stay low across the board, but low isn't zero. The bigger story for now is the everyday impacts: higher surf along nearby coastlines and isolated rain as these waves drift along. Keep an eye on the forecast and stay tuned for updates this week.
