Summary:
- Fox 13 meteorologist Tony Siddiqui discusses two areas of interest in the Atlantic Basin and the Pacific Ocean, neither of which are likely to develop into significant storms.
- Moisture associated with one of the disturbances may bring increased rain chances to Florida over the weekend, which would be beneficial for the region.
- As August approaches, the hurricane season tends to see more activity, making it important for residents to stay weather aware and informed.
Fox 13 meteorologist Tony Siddiqui discusses potential impacts of a tropical disturbance in the Atlantic on Florida's weather. While two areas are being monitored by the National Hurricane Center, development is unlikely in both cases. However, there is a chance of increased rain in Florida over the weekend due to moisture associated with the disturbance.
As the Atlantic Basin is closely monitored, meteorologist Tony Siddiqui provides updates on two areas of interest. The first one, invest 95, has been tracked from its journey across the Atlantic and the Pacific Ocean. At this point, it poses no significant threat of development. The second area, in the Pacific Ocean, has already turned into a depression, but chances of further development are minimal, with only a 10% probability over the next two days and five days. While it currently affects parts of the Windward Islands with showers and thunderstorms, it is expected to encounter unfavorable conditions like upper level wind shear, hindering any potential growth.
Another area of low pressure, well south of Bermuda, is considered disorganized and unlikely to develop, with a 20% chance over the next seven days. However, this system is worth monitoring due to its potential impact on Florida and the Carolinas. Some moisture associated with the storm may be pushed towards these regions, increasing the likelihood of rain during the weekend. This would be beneficial, as the region has experienced a need for precipitation.
Looking ahead, as July comes to a close and August approaches, the meteorologist warns that hurricane activity typically increases during this period. The peak of the season, September, sees more named storms and hurricanes. The public is advised to stay weather aware and keep track of updates on Myfoxhurricane.com throughout the season.
With potential rain in the forecast, Florida residents are advised to stay prepared and keep an eye on weather updates for the coming weekend. As the peak of the hurricane season approaches, staying informed is crucial for ensuring safety and taking necessary precautions.
