Tropical development possible late next week
FOX 13 Meteorologist Jim Weber say s there is no tropical formation expected for the next week, but we can?t let our guard down. He says there is a possibility of an area of low pressure developing in the Caribbean toward the end of next week. According to Weber, there are several different scenarios that could play out if anything does develop in the Caribbean. One scenario has the system being pulled out into the Atlantic, while another has it moving out into open water in the Atlantic but tracking closer to the east coast. A third scenario has the storm pushing to the west like Nadine. He said while it is not common for Florida to be hit by a hurricane in November, it does happen.

Tropics expected to remain quiet for next week
FOX 13 Meteorologist Jim Weber says all is quiet in the tropics, but we have to stay vigilant until the end of November. Weber says some computer models are hinting at low pressure forming in the Caribbean during the second half of next week. He says it?s just an idea at this point, but that is an area that should be watched during this time of year for development. He said step one is to see if something develops, and step two is to see where it may go.

No tropical developments in Atlantic
Things are quiet across the Atlantic. No tropical formation is expected over the next seven days, according to FOX 13 News Meteorologist Jim Weber. There are some indications that by the middle or second half of next week their may be areas of lower pressure in the Caribbean.

Tropical Storm Oscar expected to dissipate
Tropical Storm Oscar will likely dissipate on Sunday, according to FOX 13 News Meteorologist Jim Weber. After Nadine lost its center of circulation and became a remnant low, it reorganized itself and took on a new name in the Pacific. Weber says Tropical Storm Kristy is expected to become a major hurricane as it works its way across open water. Neither storm is a threat to Florida.

Tropical Storm Oscar continues to weaken
Oscar is still a very small system that has weakened into a tropical storm, according to FOX 13 News Meteorologist Jim Weber. Weber says it is expected to move into the Atlantic and is no threat to Florida.

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.

Newly developed wave in eastern Atlantic
FOX 13 News Meteorologist Valerie Mills says a strong dip in the jet stream keeps hurricanes away from Florida. Tropical Storm Leslie is moving away from the continental U.S. and a newly developed wave in the eastern Atlantic has a medium chance of formation, according to Mills.
