Tropical Depression Eight formed in the western Atlantic Ocean early Wednesday morning and is expected to strengthen to a tropical storm at any time in the next day or so. If it does so, it would be given the name "Henri."
Wind shear is currently pushing convection east of the center of the system's circulation, so that will put a lid on the system's potential for significant intensification.
A southward dip in the jet stream approaching from the eastern U.S. will accelerate the system northward, then curl it northeastward later this week.
Whether the system loses its tropical characteristics or not beforehand, there is some potential for a quick bout heavy rain and gusty winds in southeast coastal Newfoundland Saturday as the system quickly sweeps by.
