The 5 p.m. update from the National Hurricane Center Saturday showed Ian tracking west of the Tampa Bay area, but the storm was still too far away for predicting a path. NHC sails "uncertainty in the track forecast is higher than usual."

Tropical Storm Ian Update; September 24, 2022
All eyes are on Tropical Storm Ian that could impact the state of Florida next week. FOX 13 Meteorologist Tony Sadiku says Ian is battling a lot of wind shear and appears to be lopsided, which makes it tough to identify a center of circulation. However, Sadkiu says Ian is going to rapidly intensify as it passes just south of Jamaica and could become a hurricane by Sunday. Florida is within Tropical Storm Ian?s cone of uncertainty, and though it is too early to talk specifics, Sadiku says it is important to get prepared now.
