(Bloomberg) -- Three potential storms are brewing in the Atlantic Ocean. The most prominent is a patch of thunderstorms and showers several hundred miles west of Cabo Verde with a 90% chance of becoming the season’s next storm in 7 days.

The system — which will be named Beryl if it materializes into a storm — is skirting a cloud of dust and dry air to its north and is headed for the Caribbean Windward Islands. A second tropical wave moving off Africa has a 20% chance of a storm in the next week and a third one in the western Caribbean has a 30% chance. 

In the US, an excessive heat warning is in place over Dallas and its surrounding area. Temperatures will reach 100F (37.7C) Friday, but may feel closer to 110F, the National Weather Service said.

Meanwhile, there is an excessive heat watch warning for high temperatures arriving next week across California's Central Valley. The high in Sacramento will rise through the 90s through the weekend and reach 104F on Monday and Tuesday, the weather service said.
