Subtropical system may develop off Florida

FOX 13 Meteorologist Jim Weber is keeping an eye on three things in the tropics including Hurricane Nigel, an area off the Southeastern U.S. that may develop and a wave that is working its way off the coast of Africa. He says a system could develop subtropical characteristics off the coast of Florida, but Weber says it will not impact the Sunshine State because it is headed north. Hurricane Nigel is a Category 1 storm that will likely strengthen, but it is expected to stay over open waters.

He does not believe it will pose a threat to anyone on land, however. Lee and Margot continue to fizzle out, and a tropical wave moving off the coast of Africa now has a medium chance of development.
