Tropical activity could ramp up heading into the weekend
Fox 13 meteorologist Jim Weber is watching two tropical waves. Both waves are working their way off the east coast of Africa, but only one will likely develop into a storm. Jim is also watching a frontal boundary in the Gulf of Mexico which is providing some instability. According to Jim, a tropical wave is working its way south into the Gulf, which would add extra pressure to the boundary. He says that will bring heavy rain to Texas as it moves west.
