FIRST ALERT WEATHER: A few showers this afternoon before widespread rain this week

Yahoo4 days ago

This morning, we are tracking partly to mostly cloudy skies and temperatures in the 60s inland and 70s along the coast.
Humidity isn't too bad to start the day.
Highs today will reach the mid to upper 80s
Humidity increases this afternoon and a few showers will develop and head inland off the Atlantic.
A few downpours are possible.
Wednesday & Thursday look wet with mostly cloudy skies & scattered showers. An embedded storm is possible.
Still a few showers/storms around on Friday and into the weekend in the afternoons.
Rainfall totals will likely be 1-2″+ closer to the coast and 1+ inches well inland through Friday.
An area of weak low pressure will develop by midweek northeast of Jacksonville and near the coast of the Carolina's. While this area has been highlighted in yellow by the NHC for a low risk of development, there will be few if any direct impacts to Jax/NE Fl./SE Ga. Tropical moisture will bring showers & storms to the local area with or without any low pressure actually developing.
Keeping an eye on the Western Caribbean & Southern Gulf for possible longer range tropical development – not likely until at least sometime next week, if at all. Always more: 'Talking the Tropics With Mike.'

New area to watch joins Invests 91E, 92E in busy eastern Pacific tropics as Barbara looms this weekend

A busy start to the hurricane season in the eastern Pacific Ocean got even busier Saturday morning as the National Hurricane Center has now added a third area to watch for possible tropical development. But in the short term, two clusters of thunderstorms are on the cusp of becoming the basin's next named storms, but which area of disturbed weather will take the name Barbara remains somewhat of an open question. Both thunderstorm clusters were designated as invests on Friday as they parallel or slowly drift away from the Mexican coastline. The National Hurricane Center first designated the batch of developing thunderstorms farther away from the southwestern Mexican coast as Invest 91E on Friday. A few hours later, the cluster closer to the coast became Invest 92E. An "invest" designation signals an area of heightened interest and allows the National Hurricane Center to run a collection of specialized datasets and computer forecast model guidance on that area of disturbed weather. These computer models simulate the system's projected track possibilities and predict its future intensity. Saharan Dust Muddies Florida Skies Before Eyeing Gulf Coast, Texas What Is An Invest During Hurricane Season? Both 91E and 92E have a near-certain chance of developing into a tropical system over the weekend. Invest 91E organized somewhat quickly and is expected to see continued gradual development. The NHC says a tropical depression is likely to form over the weekend or early next week while the system moves northwestward at about 10 mph. It has a 70% chance of tropical development over the weekend. What Is An Invest During Hurricane Season? Invest 92E, located several hundred miles southwest of the Gulf of Tehuantepec, could potentially have impacts on Mexico's southwestern coast with rounds of heavy rains and high surf. "Environmental conditions are conducive for further development, and a tropical depression or tropical storm is expected to form this weekend as the system moves west-northwestward at 10 to 15 mph," NHC forecasters said. Invest 92E has an 80% chance of development over the weekend and thunderstorm activity has increased on the disturbance's eastern side, according to the Hurricane Center. The next name on the list is Barbara. If both manage to form into a tropical storm, the latter one would be named Cosme. Finishing out the trio, a new area to watch was tagged by the NHC on Saturday morning as an area of low pressure is forecast to develop late next week south of southern Mexico. The NHC says conditions appear conducive for some gradual development of this system as it moves west-northwestward, but as of now just has a low chance of development over the nest week. How To Watch Fox Weather Tropical activity has been increasing in the basin since the start of the hurricane season on May 15. Tropical Storm Alvin formed and quickly dissipated last week.
