Potential tropical system may impact Florida

FOX 13 Meteorologist Dave Osterberg has his eye on the tropics as we head into the heart of hurricane season. He is watching an area of moisture that?s sitting over Central America has a 50 percent chance of developing over the next week as it heads into the Caribbean and eventually the Gulf of Mexico. He says that while wind shear should keep it fairly weak, it could become a named storm. Regardless, the system will bring rain to central and South Florida next week. Two other disturbances are in the middle of the Atlantic and while Tropical Storm Franklin may gain hurricane strength as it moves into the Atlantic, it will not impact the Sunshine State.

Tropical Storm Franklin may become a hurricane

FOX 13 Meteorologist Jim Weber is watching several areas in the tropics. Tropical Storm Franklin has top winds of 40 miles an hour as it crosses the Dominican Republic. It is expected to gain strength, and possibly become a hurricane as it enters the Atlantic. Weber is also watching the remnants of Emily that has the possibility of reforming in the Atlantic. Another area Weber is looking at is in the Pacific Ocean that is moving over Central America and may eventually enter the Gulf of Mexico and develop as it hits warm water.

5 disturbances swirl in the tropics

FOX 13 Meteorologist Tony Sadiku is watching a handful of tropical disturbances, including three named storms that popped up over the last two days. On Monday, Potential Tropical Cyclone 9 and Tropical Storm Gert formed. Potential Tropical Cyclone 9 dumped rain on Florida over the weekend and is now moving west in the Gulf of Mexico. The system could impact Texas as early as Tuesday. Tropical Storm Franklin is in the Caribbean, but it is expected to turn into the Atlantic and gain strength. Tropical Storm Gert is having a tough time and will likely dissipate on Monday. Emily, which became a tropical storm on Sunday, has been downgraded to a post-tropical storm and the National Hurricane Center says it has issued its last advisory on the storm. Sadiku says the good news is that none of the tropical systems will impact Florida. The next named storm will be called Harold.
