Hurricane Nigel continues to spin out in the Atlantic, moving northwest. Nigel is forecast to rapidly intensify and become a major hurricane by tomorrow morning. 

It is forecast to continue to move NW over the next couple of days before turning northeast, well away from Bermuda. It is not expected to impact any land at this time.

There are two areas we will be watching in the Atlantic. 
The first is a tropical wave is forecast to move off the coast of Africa by mid-week.  Some gradual development is possible as it moves westward across the eastern Atlantic nd where it likely to form into a tropical depression by late week or the weekend. We will keep an eye on it, but of now, it is not expected to be a threat to SWFL.
The second is an area of low pressure that is forecast to form off of the SE US coast later this week, with the possibility of subtropical characteristics. This is not a threat to SWFL. 

Stick with ABC7 as we continue to track the tropics through the remainder of hurricane season.
