Tropical Depression 17 Forms in the Southwest Caribbean Sea

Hello to all….

The Atlantic Hurricane Season is not quite over yet. Tropical Depression (TD) 17 has formed in the Southwest Caribbean Sea. TD 17 is expected to intensify into a tropical storm in the next 24 hours and could become a hurricane in 2-4 days. If TD 17 can attain Tropical Storm status as forecasted, it would be named Paloma. The current track guidance indicates some threat to the Cayman Islands and Cuba in the 4-5 day period but given the system just formed, the track is very uncertain at this point in time.

The VoIP Hurricane Net Management Team will continue to closely monitor the progress of TD 17. Thanks to all for their continued support of the VoIP Hurricane Net!
