FORECAST: Pop up storms this afternoon
We're drying out from last night's showers, just to rinse and repeat that forecast again!
It's going to be hot and humid with highs in the upper 80s, feeling like the low 90s this afternoon.
And while the first half of the day is dry, the second half will feature pop-up showers and storm chances again.
Similar to the past few days, we'll watch for locally heavy rainfall and flooding issues in areas that storms sit over.
Any activity that pops up tonight will slowly clear overnight before we do it again for Father's Day!
A similar pattern will continue into next week with temperatures slowly climbing into the low 90s by late week.

Record ocean temps fuel Tropical Storm Dexter, 2 more systems brewing
Tropical Storm Dexter has formed off the coast of the Carolinas and is expected to track away from the United States without making landfall. The storm developed quickly due to very warm water in the Gulf Stream, which has been near record-breaking levels in recent weeks. Dexter is projected to fizzle out in the northern Atlantic by the end of the week. Meteorologists are also monitoring two other disturbances. One is located off the Georgia coast, with a 30% chance of development. If it forms, it may drift west or northwest onshore. Another tropical wave off the coast of Africa has a 50% chance of development. This system could form as early as Wednesday, but it is likely to move north too quickly to impact the United States directly.

Potential storm appears off East Coast as hurricane season danger ramps up
An area of low pressure is expected to form on the night of Saturday, Aug. 2, or Sunday, Aug. 3, near the coast of the Carolinas with a one-in-five likelihood of becoming a cyclone over the span of a week, hurricane experts say. The "area of disturbance" is forecasted to form along a frontal system off the southeastern coast of the United States, according to an Aug. 2 tropics advisory issued by the National Hurricane Center at 2 p.m. ET. The development could continue through Monday as it slowly moves east northeastward; after this time, "environmental conditions become less conducive for development," the advisory continues. The center forecasted a 30% chance of forming through the next 48 hours and a 30% chance through the next seven days. The system comes as August begins, a time when forecasters expect the so-far unremarkable Atlantic hurricane season to ramp up. "We're already seeing longer-range forecast models start to perk up," WPLG-TV hurricane expert Michael Lowry previously told USA TODAY. "The deep Atlantic tropical waves coming from Africa have been peppier this week, and July 24's long-range forecast models jumped from a generally quiet next 15 days to a much busier look for the first part of August." The center is also tracking three tropical waves in the Caribbean, not currently forecast to be a threat. One is moving west near the Caribbean to northeastern Venezuela, another is moving west in the central Caribbean and the other is moving west in the northwest Caribbean near Honduras. Will the system impact the Carolinas? Forecasters aren't currently worried about the system ruining beach vacations or causing major damage for residents. The threat level for the "area of disturbance" remains low, even in the one-in-five chance that it develops into a cyclone within the next seven days, weather service meteorologist Aaron Swiggett told USA TODAY. When is hurricane season? Atlantic hurricane season is from June 1 to Nov. 30 every year, with the most activity between August and October. Should another weather system develop into a tropical storm, the system would be named Dexter, which is next on the list of 2025 Atlantic hurricane season names.

Tropical Storm Dexter forms in Atlantic
Tropical Storm Dexter formed Sunday night in the Atlantic off the Carolina coast, where it will continue to move away from the United States. The 11 pm advisory from the National Hurricane Center has winds of 45 mph. The complex organized quickly during the daytime hours Sunday, and was classified a tropical storm Sunday night. Dexter is expected to strengthen some but remain a tropical storm. The storm will continue to move northeastward away from the United States and will likely become post-tropical by Wednesday. Dexter is the fourth named storm of the Atlantic hurricane season. Two other areas in the Atlantic are also being monitored for potential development. Both areas will be slow to develop in the coming days, and neither is a direct threat to Florida at this time. Stay with Severe Weather Center 9 for the latest on the tropics.
