Paulette Depression was located in the early hours of this Friday several hundred miles northwest of the Azores.

There is a 10% probability that a cyclone will form in the next 48 hours and reach Portugal after the passage of the Paulette depression in the Azores. The forecast advances by US National Hurricane Center, which reported a 30% probability this Thursday, having been updated to 10% this Friday.

The US National Hurricane Center is following the phenomenon. The Paulette depression was located in the early hours of Friday, several hundred miles northwest of the Azores. It is expected to move rapidly south over the next few days and then reach the Azores, with the highest incidence in the islands of Flores and Corvo this weekend.

The depression could also revert to tropical features as it progresses, warns the US National Hurricane Center.

Regardless of the evolution of these meteorological phenomena, bad weather is a certainty in the coming days with rain and wind marking the end of summer.

According to the information made available this Thursday on the IPMA website, at 3:00 p.m. in Lisbon (2:00 p.m. in the Azores), “the depression (former tropical cyclone Paulette) was approximately 870 km northwest (NNW) of the island of Flores., with a minimum pressure in its center of approximately 980 mb, and it is expected that in the next few hours it will move to the south ”.
