In the tropics, we’re watching a wave near the southeastern Bahamas that will pass over South Florida in a few days. This wave has a medium chance of developing into a depression after it reaches a more favorable environment over the Straits of Florida and the southern Gulf of Mexico. Whether it develops or not, we can expect gusty showers and storms for much of the weekend.
Elsewhere in the tropics, the wave in the central Atlantic has a low chance of developing into a depression as it slowly moves west. A third wave, now south of the Cape Verde Islands, has a low chance of developing during the next 5 days as it also moves westward.
