FOX 13 Meteorologist Tony Sadiku is monitoring Tropical Storm Fiona as it approaches the Virgin Islands.

Today's tropical weather forecast
Meteorologist Jim Weber says Tropical Storm Fiona is nearing the northern Leeward Islands. As it works its way through the Caribbean, it could have an opportunity to strengthen. One of the big questions is when it may turn north. Computer models are starting to agree, showing it may completely avoid Florida.

Tropical Storm Fiona forecast: Sept. 16, 2022
Meteorologist Dave Osterberg says Tropical Storm Fiona will be a rainmaker for the Leeward Islands, Puerto Rico and Hispaniola. It will eventually turn north and long-range computer models show it staying east of Florida -- but it's not 100% certain. It's still worth keeping an eye on if you live in the Sunshine State.
