Scattered Afternoon Storms, Staying Seasonable
SUMMARY: Meteorologist Lexi Birmingham reports that the tropics have been quiet due to Saharan dust limiting tropical development. However, a low chance of development is being monitored in the Atlantic, though it poses no immediate threat to the Gulf Coast. Local weather features cloudy skies with temperatures in the 70s, rising to the upper 80s and near 90ยฐF this afternoon, alongside a 60% chance of showers and thunderstorms. Rain activity is expected to pick up in the afternoon, tapering off into the evening. The forecast suggests continuing rain chances into next week, with temperatures gradually rising into the mid-90s by Wednesday.
This stubborn weather pattern continues as showers and storms can be expected throughout the day today with our best chance coming during the afternoon. Temperatures will stay near average in the upper 80s to low 90s. Full Forecast: https://tinyurl.com/5dp9smer

Gloomy Conditions with Isolated Coastal Showers: Saturday Morning Forecast 9/7/2024
SUMMARY: Meteorologist Grant Skinner from the First Alert Storm Team reports on tropical developments: a system in the Ukan Peninsula is moving north and west into the southwestern Gulf, with a medium chance of slow development, potentially bringing rain to Northeastern Mexico and Southeastern Texas. The central Atlantic shows another area with low development chances. Locally, scattered clouds and isolated showers are expected along the coast, with a 30% rain chance today. Temperatures will range between the upper 60s to mid-70s, keeping conditions cooler. Rain and cooler weather are anticipated for next week, providing relief from the summer heat.
We are starting this morning with humid but mild conditions across the Gulf Coast. Thanks to lingering cloud cover and isolated showers, we won’t get much warmer throughout the day as highs only sit in the upper-70’s and low-80’s. The majority of the showers will sit along and south of I-10. Rip current risk will be low through the end of the weekend. Sunday will bring only a few showers confined closer to the coast, but mostly cloudy skies will keep temperatures in the low-80’s. We are set to have gloomy conditions even into next week as a stationary boundary stays stalled offshore. Isolated showers and a few storms are possible through the end of the next work week. In the tropics, we are tracking a couple of areas. One is expected to move into the Bay of Campeche and has a medium chance of development over the next week. It will interact with the frontal boundary in the Gulf, and it could become a depression next week. Another area is in the central Atlantic, but it has a low chance of formation over the next seven days.
