Invest 95L sees increased chance of tropical development, no threat to Florida
Tropical system unlikely to develop in Atlantic
FOX 13 Meteorologist Jim Weber is watching two areas of interest in the tropics, but neither is expected to impact Florida. Weber says Invest 94, which is in the Atlantic is looking less likely that it will turn into anything. It only has a 10% chance of development over the next week because it has dry area surrounding it and is about to head into an area with high wind shear. Invest 95, which is in the Caribbean has a 50% chance of development over the next week and may become a tropical depression before entering Central America. Once it goes into the Pacific Ocean, Weber says it could possibly become a named system as it heads west away from the United States.
TAMPA, Fla. - The National Hurricane Center says a disturbance dubbed Invest 95L has an increased chance to develop in the western Caribbean over the coming days.

Chances for Invest 95L to develop are increasing, while Invest 94L is seeing lower development odds.
As of Friday morning, the NHC is giving the wave a 50 percent chance of development over the next two days, as well as 50 percent in the next seven days.
Regardless of development, Invest 95L is expected to move west and bring heavy rain to portions of Central America and southern Mexico through the weekend.

Models show Invest 95L bringing heavy rain to portions of Central America and southern Mexico.
Another system moving west over the Atlantic, Invest 94L, has a lower chance of development at just 10 percent in the next seven days, according to the NHC.
As of Friday morning, the disturbance is bringing disorganized showers and thunderstorms north of Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. It's expected to move near Hispaniola and the
southeastern Bahamas this weekend.
FOX 13 Meteorologist Nash Rhodes says a cold front that moved in from the north this week, bringing lower temperatures to the Bay Area, will continue to keep tropical threats away from Florida in the days to come.

Drier air over Florida and the Gulf of Mexico will keep any tropical threats away from the state, forecasters say.
"The drier air in the Gulf of Mexico is keeping things on the calm side in terms of the tropics," Rhodes said.
As for the weather forecast, Rhodes says this weekend will be "mostly rain-free" in the Bay Area, with low rain chances returning by Monday.

Temperatures will warm back up this weekend, with conditions staying mostly dry into next week.
