Key Points:
- A potential subtropical storm may develop this week in the Atlantic, marking the first activity in the basin after two weeks of quiet.
- The storm, if it forms, would be named Kyle and is expected to originate from a broad low-pressure area northeast of the Bahamas.
- The system has a limited window to organize this week before unfavorable conditions likely prevent its development by the weekend.
- It is expected to remain far from the U.S. East Coast but could impact Bermuda as it drifts east or northeast into the open Atlantic.
- Subtropical storms, like the recent Josephine, are hybrid systems that can produce heavy rain, strong winds, and storm surge, and are monitored and named by the National Hurricane Center.
