National Hurricane Center monitoring multiple systems off Florida coast
The National Hurricane Center is closely monitoring multiple systems off the coast of Florida and the Southeastern United States, as heavy rain and potential tropical development are expected in the coming days.
According to recent reports from the National Hurricane Center, a low pressure system off the coast of Florida has a low chance for development before it moves inland. This system could bring heavy rain to the Carolinas late this week and into the weekend.
Additionally, another tropical disturbance is being tracked off the Southeast US Coast. Although it is not expected to become a tropical depression or storm before making landfall, heavy rainfall is possible for portions of the Carolina coast later this week into the weekend.
The Atlantic hurricane season runs from June 1 through Nov. 30 and peaks between mid-August and mid-October. This year, forecasters are predicting a quieter than average season due to Saharan dust and strong wind shear in the Atlantic basin.
