Tropical depression may form next week
FOX 13 Meteorologist Jim Weber is keeping an eye on a disturbance off the coast of Africa. He says it?s disorganized, but conditions are conducive for it to develop as it gains strength over warm waters next week. Weber says there is a 50 %chance it will develop over the next seven days and could become a tropical depression or tropical storm.

Tropical wave rolling off African coast
FOX 13 Meteorologist Jim Weber says there are a number of tropical waves working their way across the Atlantic and added that a disturbance has formed off the coast of Africa. Weber says that the system has a 20 percent chance of developing in a week or so but says it won?t likely have much fanfare and may just produce some showers. However, he adds that it does have the potential to strengthen as it heads into the Caribbean or Atlantic toward the end of next week.

Hostile conditions keep tropics quiet
FOX 13 Meteorologist Jim Weber says all is quiet in the tropics thanks to wind shear, which is creating a hostile environment for storms. Weber cautions people against paying too close attention to internet postings about tropical development this early in the season. He says when you see one computer model suggesting that something may spin up, it doesn?t give you the confidence that it will become a reality. Weber says no development is expected over the next five to seven days.

Tropical systems kept at bay
FOX 13 Meteorologist Jim Weber says we are seeing warmer waters throughout the Gulf of Mexico and into the Caribbean Sea, but dry air and strong wind shear are keeping tropical systems at bay. Weber says it?s basically the same story as we go into the next five to seven days with no signs of development.

Tropics remain quiet as wind shear continues
FOX 13 Meteorologist Jim Weber says the wind shear is keeping storms from forming in the areas of the tropics meteorologists keep an eye on this time of year. He does not expect anything to develop over the five to seven days.

Quiet stretch continues in the tropics
A quiet stretch has continued in the tropics after Tropical Storm Arlene formed at the beginning of the month. Fox 13 Meteorologist Dave Osterbeg says that should continue for at least the next seven days. He says this is typical for June as the months with the most storms are usually August-October.

2023 hurricane season likely to be quiet
FOX 13 Meteorologist Tyler Eliasen says despite Tropical Storm Arlene, this hurricane season isn?t expected to be overly active as we transition to an El Nino. He says there are no signs of anything developing in the tropics over the next week. However, he reminds everyone of the importance of staying vigilant because it only takes one bad storm to make it a bad hurricane season.

Tropics to remain quiet for next week
Though it is early into the 2023 hurricane season, there may be activity in the tropics as we saw with Tropical Storm Arlene, which formed last week, but FOX 13 Meteorologist Tyler Eliasen says nothing is expected to develop over the next seven days. Eliasen adds that he thinks we will see fewer named storms than we have seen in the last three or four years due to wind shear tied to the developing El Nino. However, he cautions that if we get just one bad storm, it will be considered a bad year regardless of the number that form.

Tropical development unlikely despite Atlantic disturbance
We are one storm into hurricane season and FOX 13 Meteorologist Dave Osteberg says we usually only see about 6% of activity in June and he says it is unlikely we?ll see anything develop thanks to a Saharan dust cloud and drier air. However, Osterberg adds that there is one area of disturbance by the Azores. He says it only has a 10% chance of forming over the next week and if it did develop it would not impact the United States.
