Overview
- Tropical Storm Dexter has strengthened to sustained winds near 50 mph and is centered about 425 miles south of Cape Race, Newfoundland, posing no threat to land.
- The National Hurricane Center projects Dexter will complete its extratropical transition by Friday and may briefly regain strength before weakening over the weekend.
- A low-pressure area several hundred miles off the Southeastern U.S. coast is producing minimal shower activity and holds a 30% chance of tropical cyclone formation over the next seven days.
- A tropical wave moving off the African coast carries a 60% probability of organizing into a tropical depression by early next week as it tracks west-northwest.
- NOAA forecasts an above-average 2025 Atlantic hurricane season with 13 to 19 named storms and peak climatological activity expected from mid-August through October.
