Tropical Watch: Storm Risk Lingers | Jacksonville News

Tropical storm chances are low but not zero as the National Hurricane Center watches a stretch from Florida’s Big Bend to South Carolina—expect showers and thunderstorms, especially in Central and North Florida, thanks to a weak front and instability, though Saharan dust is suppressing major storm formation. A weak low-pressure system could emerge later this weekend in the eastern Gulf, potentially drifting toward North Florida and the western Atlantic, where conditions might become more favorable. With hurricane season underway—even with El Niño—early storms often form closer to shore, so stay alert, prep your plan, and keep an eye on the tropics.
