Gabrielle has formed in the Atlantic Ocean to the east of the US. It is expected to move northwest before turning more north. It should stay clear of the Southeast US however that cannot yet be ruled out for the Mid-Atlantic/Northeast US. There are two other areas to also watch just off the west coast of Africa with 20% odds to develop into a depression within the next 7 days.
