FOX 13 Meteorologist Tony Sadiku is keeping an eye on Lisa, which is now a tropical depression in the Bay of Campeche as well as two areas in the Atlantic that have the potential for development. One area that has a 30 percent chance of developing over the next five days will not impact the United States, but an area south of Florida has a 60 percent chance of development over the next five days and would impact the state. He says the storm?s impact would be higher on Florida?s east coast and could cause coastal flooding. Sadiku adds that the weather for the Bay Area is expected to be a little unsettled beginning on Tuesday and extending into the later part of next week. If it is a named storm it will be Nicole.
