Out of four tropical disturbances that have been developing, two of them are of the most concern to the twin-island State of Antigua and Barbuda.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

According to the Director of the Antigua and Barbuda Meteorological Service, Dale Destin, there are two disturbances over the Atlantic east of the island.<\/p>\n

One has a 90 percent chance of becoming a cyclone and is predicted to turn to the North and not be a threat. However Dale advice that Antigua remains cautious until it turns.<\/p>

The other disturbance has a 30 percent chance of formation and seems to taking a westerly path which is the general direction of Antigua from Africa.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Additionally there is the possibility that four more named storms and three major hurricanes could form in the months between September and November.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe forecast is for at least an average season. My forecast would have called for an above-average season, but if we go by the average season, then we can look for the average amount from September of four main storms and three hurricanes,\u201d Destin revealed.<\/p>
