FOX 13 Meteorologist Jim Weber continues to watch Invest 94, which has an 80 percent chance of development over the next week. He says it is a broad area of low pressure, but all signs show it will likely become the next tropical depression and may strengthen into Tropical Storm Tammy. Weber says it will strengthen but may weaken as it approaches the islands near Puerto Rico. Then it will likely move north.

FOX 13 Meteorologist Jim Weber is monitoring Invest 94 as it swirls in the Atlantic. He says it has an 80 percent chance of developing over the next week. While it is not a well-formed system at this point, Weber says it looks like it will strengthen, but it is unclear how strong it will get and how long it will last as models show it weakening shortly after it develops. The next name on the list is Tammy.

Weber says it appears to be moving west and then will likely make a turn to the north, but it is too soon to tell where exactly it is headed and how much it will strengthen.
