The tropics remain quite active. Hurricane Isaac remains over the open waters of the north Atlantic. Tropical Storm Joyce is gradually weakening over the central Atlantic. Meanwhile, there are two other areas of concern. Trailing behind Joyce, we have a new tropical depression (#12) and yet another area of low pressure that is likely to develop into a tropical depression by later this week. And finally, a broad area of low pressure over the western Caribbean is expected to track into the Gulf of Mexico, potentially developing into a tropical depression by the middle of the week. The next names on the Atlantic list are Kirk and Leslie.
