Tropical system unlikely to develop in Atlantic
FOX 13 Meteorologist Jim Weber is watching two areas of interest in the tropics, but neither is expected to impact Florida. Weber says Invest 94, which is in the Atlantic is looking less likely that it will turn into anything. It only has a 10% chance of development over the next week because it has dry area surrounding it and is about to head into an area with high wind shear. Invest 95, which is in the Caribbean has a 50% chance of development over the next week and may become a tropical depression before entering Central America. Once it goes into the Pacific Ocean, Weber says it could possibly become a named system as it heads west away from the United States.

Cold front keeps tropical weather away from Florida
FOX 13 Meteorologist Jim Weber is watching two areas of interest in the tropics that are not expected to impact Florida. One system will likely bring a lot of rain to Central America while Invest 94L will continue moving west. A front that is bringing lower temperatures and humidity to the Sunshine State is expected to produce a strong ridge of high pressure and wind shear, which will steer Invest 94L to the south of Florida. Invest 94L does not have a high likelihood for development, but if it does become something, Weber says it will continue moving west and is not expected to enter the Gulf of Mexico.

Cold front to keep Invest 94L south of Florida
FOX 13 Meteorologist Jim Weber is keeping an eye on several systems in the tropics but stresses that nothing is headed toward the Bay Area. Weber says something is slowing trying to develop in the Southwestern Caribbean and will work its way into Central America. He adds that there is nothing that will bring the system up into the Gulf of Mexico. He is also watching Invest 94L in the Atlantic that is moving west across an environment that is favorable for development. According to Weber a cold front that will cross the Bay Area this week will keep invest 94L south of Florida.
