Tracking Tropical Storm Lala
FOX 13 meteorologist Valerie Mills is tracking Tropical Storm Lala, which has sustained winds of 65 mph. It is still expected to become Hurricane Lala. This system is expected to pass just to the south, running parallel to the islands over the weekend.

Tropical Storm Lala aims for Hawaii
FOX 13 Meteorologist Nash Rhodes explains that the National Hurricane Center is tracking two tropical systems in the Atlantic alongside Tropical Storm Lala in the Pacific, which is forecast to strengthen into a Category 1 hurricane before striking Hawaii.

Cristobal downgraded
FOX 13 meteorologist Jim Weber explains that Tropical Depression Cristobal was downgraded from a tropical storm and is expected to dissipate over open water Thursday. Two atmospheric disturbances farther south struggle against dry air and wind shear.

Cristobal: New named system
FOX 13 Meteorologist Jim Weber is monitoring a new system named Cristobal. Tropical Storm Cristobal has formed in the central Atlantic, tracking east-northeast away from the United States coastline. Forecasters expect the system to be short-lived while they monitor two additional tropical waves further east.

Tropical wave's chances for development increase in Atlantic
We are down to two areas that FOX 13 meteorologists are watching in the tropics. The first is a trough of low pressure in the Central Subtropical Atlantic located about 750 miles east-northeast of Bermuda.

Two Atlantic systems being tracked
FOX 13 Meteorologist Jim Weber is watching two areas in the Atlantic that he said poses no concern now. He says one that has a 10% area is heading out over open waters. A second area in the Atlantic has a 70 percent chance of developing over the next week. Weber says it is sitting on the southern side of wind shear and a Saharan dust plume, which increases its chance of development. Weber says while it may get stronger, it is expected to eventually work its way into a more hostile environment as it moves toward the north.

Today's tropical weather forecast
FOX 13 Meteorologist Jim Weber is watching several tropical waves in the Atlantic. However, he said there is no big concern with anything. One wave that has a 10% chance of developing over the next week is moving away from the United States. Another wave with a 10 percent chance of development is moving into the Caribbean, where Weber says it will encounter wind shear and it won’t be able to survive in a hostile environment. The third wave found an area in between Saharan dust plumes and has a 60 percent chance of development over the next week. Weber says the storm is giving signs that it will turn toward the north as we head toward next week.

Tropics show signs of life
FOX 13 meteorologist Valerie Mills is monitoring the tropics as activity picks up in the main development region. One area has a 20% chance of development over the next seven days, while another has a 40% chance.

Monitoring the tropics
Fox 13 Meteorologist Valerie Mills is monitoring a new system in the far eastern Atlantic. A tropical wave set to emerge off the coast of Africa currently shows a low—20%—chance of gradual development.

Below average season
Fox 13 Meteorologist Jim Weber explains how signs point to a below-average hurricane season, driven in part by a continuing and intensifying El Niño. Additionally, no tropical storm formation is expected over the next seven days. However, vigilance remains important as the season moves toward its peak on September 10.

Saharan dust delays Atlantic storms
FOX 13 Meteorologist Jim Weber says we’re running behind when it comes to having named storms form during hurricane season. He said a large plume of Saharan dust is working its way off the coast of Africa, which is inhibiting tropical systems. Weber noted that there is a tropical wave rolling off the coast as well but is not supposed to develop over the next week.

Tropical waves, Saharan dust roll off Africa
FOX 13 Meteorologist Valerie Mills is keeping an eye on the tropics and says Monday is usually when the third named storm of the season typically forms. However, she said everything is quiet, but she is keeping tabs on a couple of tropical waves coming off the coast of Africa. She added that Saharan dust plumes are creating an inhospitable environment for storm to form.

Saharan dust stifles storms
FOX 13 Meteorologist Nash Rhodes is keeping the quiet tropics. He said the National Hurricane Center is calling for no formation over the next seven days. According to Rhodes a plume of Saharan dust coming off the coast of Africa is bringing drier air across the Atlantic region making it difficult for storm systems to find their footing.

Quiet tropics, no formations expected
FOX 13’s Meteorologist Nash Rhodes reports that no tropical development is expected over the next seven days. High levels of dry air and Saharan dust are playing key roles as we enter early August. These hostile conditions make it difficult for any tropical systems to form.

No tropical formation expected through July
FOX 13's Meteorologist Nash Rhodes reports that the tropics should remain quiet through the end of July. Unfavorable environmental conditions—specifically strong upper-level winds and atmospheric dry air—are expected to suppress any tropical development over the next seven days.

Unfavorable conditions keep things quiet in Atlantic
FOX 13’s Meteorologist Valerie Mills discusses what we’re watching in the tropics. Lots of dry air and Saharan dust across the Atlantic Basin, particularly over the Caribbean portions of the southern gulf as well, and a hostile environment are expected to keep things quiet through the end of July. Conditions remain unfavorable for any possible tropical development.

Tropics to remain quiet through July
FOX 13 Meteorologist Valerie Mills is keeping an eye on the tropics. She says lots of dry air and Saharan dust coming across the Atlantic basin limits factors for any tropical development through the month of July and the start of August. No formations are being watched or highlighted over the next seven days by the National Hurricane Center. However, on the eastern pacific, two hurricanes are being watched. Hurricane Fausto, a Category 1 storm, and Hurricane Genevieve, a Category 4 storm, that will continue to weaken over open waters.

Saharan dust and drier air keep Caribbean quiet
FOX 13 meteorologist Valerie Mills says the tropics are quiet due to the heavy Saharan dust and dry air. She says she expects the dust to keep things quiet through the end of the month. Mills says she is keeping an eye on an area in the eastern pacific that has low chances of development.

Saharan dust returns, but tropics remain quiet
FOX 13 Meteorologist Valerie Mills says all is quiet with no formations that we are currently tracking over the next 7 days. Large plumes of Saharan dust are being monitored near portions of the Caribbean Islands, although they are not near Florida or the Gulf. The next 2026 storm name in line is Cristobal.
