The National Hurricane Center is tracking a tropical wave in the central Atlantic which is moving quickly toward the Caribbean. There also is a non-tropical system over the northwestern Atlantic — well away from Florida — that may develop into a tropical or subtropical storm over the next several days, according to AccuWeather.

A tropical storm watch is now in effect for Jamaica as there is the potential for a tropical cyclone to form in the central Caribbean later Tuesday. This means that tropical storm conditions could pose a possible threat to Jamaica within 48 hours.

The storm will likely develop into a hurricane over the weekend, according to the National Hurricane Center in Miami.
