The Atlantic Basin has been quiet since Barry slammed into the Louisiana coast on Saturday, July 13.
A concentrated batch of downpours and thunderstorms, known as a tropical wave, brews into the Eastern Bahamas may attempt to churn out a more organized tropical system offshore of the southeastern United States in the coming days.
Tropical waves often traverse the tropical Atlantic Ocean from east to west during summer and are the conditions for tropical depressions, storms and hurricanes if conditions are conducive for development.

Regardless, residents and visitors across the Bahamas will notice an increase in thunderstorms and thunderstorms Monday.
The downpours can reach Miami on Monday night before a stormy Tuesday across the Florida Peninsula.
The tropical downpours can spoil some vacation plans and lead to slower travel. Anyone spending time outdoors should remember to seek shelter as soon as possible.
“Eventually, the tropical feature will be incorporated into the cold front that is currently sinking to the south and rising relief from the heat wave across the U.S.,” Douty said.
“As far as the Southeast coast, this is the second half of the week during gradual tropical development,” he added.
The chance for development is currently low but will continue to be closely monitored by AccuWeather meteorologists. That development could be fully tropical or subtropical in nature.
A subtropical storm has both tropical and non-tropical characteristics.
“Subtropical Storms tend to be slightly lopsided and may contain pockets of dry air near the center.”However, in terms of impact, they can also bring heavy rainfall, rough sea and surf conditions and strong winds, just like their true tropical storm cousin.”
“Tropical development along with a stalled frontal boundary is a slow process, so there is no question as to whether or not the feature will be developed before it is removed from the coast and into the cooler water,” Douty stated.
Even if a tropical depression or named storm fails to take shape, the front will be brought on by a long stretch of thunderstorms and thunderstorms in the Florida Peninsula later this week.
This time during Georgia and the Carolinas, the coasts along the coast and thunderstorms may also graze and disrupt beachgoers.
Latest indications suggest that a more organized tropical system of shape will take shape later in the week, which will remain offshore. There is still an enhanced rainfall along the Southeast coast and rough seas that can be found along the southwestern Atlantic Ocean.
