    The National Hurricane Center said Tuesday it is monitoring two systems in the Atlantic Ocean, including one that could develop into a tropical depression later this week.

    The system, currently designated Invest 94L, was described by the hurricane center as a “well-defined area of ​​low pressure” located over the central tropical Atlantic Ocean, currently producing intermittent showers and thunderstorms.

    Forecasters said the system remains “embedded in a dry air environment” and development is unlikely in the coming days, but the system is expected to move generally westward and environmental conditions are expected to become more favorable for gradual development through the middle to latter part of this week.

    “A tropical depression could form as the system begins moving west-northwestward and approaches or nears the Leeward Islands late this week,” the NHC said. The system has a 60 percent chance of forming in the next seven days.

    The hurricane center also said Tuesday it is monitoring a “broad area of ​​low pressure” that could develop over the southwestern Caribbean Sea during the mid to latter parts of this week.

    Gradual development of the system is possible afterward if it remains above water as it slowly moves west-northwestward toward northern Central America, the NHC said. Regardless of the development, however, locally heavy rainfall is possible in parts of Central America later this week.

    The system is not currently expected to impact the U.S. coast.
