Tropical storm warnings may be issued in Puerto Rico and other Caribbean locations as a low-pressure system located about 150 miles east of Barbados looks likely to strengthen
The first named tropical system in the Atlantic since early July could form by Tuesday, and tropical storm watches were issued for Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands Monday afternoon. The storm is being called Potential Tropical Cyclone Six by the National Hurricane Center and could be given the name Fred overnight Monday night into Tuesday. This would be the sixth named storm of the season.
Tropical storm watches are issued when tropical storm conditions are expected within the next 48 hours, while tropical storm warnings are issued when the same conditions are expected within only 36 hours. Besides Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands, tropical storm watches were issued by the respective governments of Guadeloupe, Martinique and Dominica.
— National Hurricane Center August 9, 2021 "The disturbance is forecast to reach portions of the Lesser Antilles tonight, then move near the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico on Tuesday, and be near Hispaniola around the middle of this week," said the hurricane center. Land interaction in the Caribbean could help weaken the system upon its approach to the Gulf of Mexico. Any impacts on the United States from the disturbance would occur over the weekend.
