Chances of rain increase later this week, perhaps partly due to the tropics.

TROPICS:

  • Tropical Storm Patty is headed to Portugal & weakening
  • A disturbance in the Caribbean is organizing & forecast to move to the Gulf as a named storm
  • This system is expected to become Rafael and then a hurricane on Wednesday
  • Conditions in the Gulf will be a bit hostile and should weaken this system
  • The current forecast track keeps it west of Florida
  • Any impacts locally would be very fringe – an uptick in rain would be the only thing & onshore winds just won’t go away
  • There may be another system that develops behind what should be Rafael near the Bahamas
  • Early indications keep that one away from Florida too
  • Next name after Rafael is Sara
