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.
