# Atlantic tropical system development monitoring > Live situation record from CLSTR: https://clstr.news/situations/atlantic-tropical-system-development-monitoring > Updated: 2026-08-24T00:00:00.000Z. Sources: 5. Developments: 2. Meteorologists are monitoring several systems in the Atlantic Basin for potential tropical development. Initially, the National Hurricane Center identified three areas of interest: a system southeast of Florida with a 60 percent chance of development, a low-level circulation near Bermuda with a 50 percent chance, and a tropical wave near the Cabo Verde islands also holding a 60 percent chance. By the following day, reports indicated that three distinct areas remained under observation. The most significant threat was identified as a potential low-pressure area south of the Cape Verde Islands, carrying a 50 percent probability of cyclone development within seven days. Other disturbances included a system east-northeast of Quintana Roo with a 30 percent chance and a distant northeastern Atlantic disturbance with a 10 percent chance. Forecasters noted that a strengthening El Niño pattern and Saharan dust plumes could influence these systems, potentially creating hostile conditions for hurricane formation. ## Timeline ### 2026-08-24: Atlantic basin monitoring three systems for potential tropical development Forecasters are monitoring three Atlantic disturbances, including a system near the Cape Verde Islands with a 50 percent chance of cyclone development within seven days. 3 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/atlantic-basin-monitoring-three-systems-for-potential-tropical-development ### 2026-08-23: Atlantic tropical systems show increasing chance of development The National Hurricane Center is tracking multiple Atlantic systems, including one southeast of Florida with a 60% chance of development and a tropical wave in the eastern Atlantic with a 60% chance. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/atlantic-tropical-systems-show-increasing-chance-of-development --- Cite as: Atlantic tropical system development monitoring.
