Watching The Tropics

Right now the polar jet stream is all the way up into Canada, while the sub-tropical jet looms over the Gulf of Mexico. Wind shear will be weak in between both of these area in the coming days.



Latest data shows a low pressure developing a few hundred miles off the eastern coast of Florida by Tuesday. This low could possibly take on some tropical characteristics, however, the chances are looking pretty slim at this point. Nonetheless, we will be carefully watching this area in the coming days and will keep you posted!
