Tropical system to bring rain to Florida
FOX 13 Meteorologist Nash Rhodes is continuing to monitor a tropical system that has just been upgraded to Invest 97L. He says it has a 60% chance of developing over the next week. It has a 20% chance of forming over the next 48 hours, but those chances remain low because it will be battling wind shear, Saharan dust and mountainous terrain. However, it is expected to bring rain to Florida. Nash notes that it is too early to pinpoint where the rain will fall because the system could strengthen or weaken, and its path is not set in stone. If the storm earns a name, it will be called Debby.
