ORLANDO, Fla. — Tropical Storm Fay continues to churn in the open Atlantic, while another system could still organize in the next 48 hours.
The 5 pm advisory from the National Hurricane Center had winds of 50 mph.
The system may strengthen more on Thursday night before weakening by Friday.
Fay is moving to the west at 6 mph and is expected to maintain its westward movement over the next several days.
The complex is anticipated to remain out to sea in the open Atlantic and will likely be a remnant low by the weekend.
Fay formed early Sunday morning. It became a remnant low on Tuesday and reorganized on Wednesday.
It is the sixth named storm of the 2026 Atlantic hurricane season.
Elsewhere, a second area in the eastern Atlantic could soon become a tropical depression or tropical storm.
The area, known as Invest 90L, is moving northward toward the Cabo Verde islands.
It could be a short-lived system Thursday night or Friday as it continues to move north.
Those interested in the Cabo Verde Islands and portions of western Africa should monitor the progress of this system, where heavy rainfall is possible.
Neither system will impact Florida or the United States.
The Climate Prediction Center is highlighting potential activity in the southern Gulf by the end of September or early October.
