A system moving west off the coast of Africa has a 70 percent chance of forming a tropical cyclone over the next 48 hours, the National Weather Service said Wednesday morning.
With the system traveling west at between 10 and 15 mph, possible development is projected as the strong upper-level winds decrease over the next couple of days, the weather service said. There’s a high probability this system will form a tropical depression in a day or so.
Meanwhile, the weather service issued its last public advisory for Hermine at 4 a.m., as the tropical depression delivered flooding rains and 30 mph winds to portions of north and central Texas.
Hermine was expected to continue weakening as it moves north through southwest Oklahoma and onto southern Kansas by Thursday.
