Tropical Weather

Tropical Storm "Bud" is a 60 mph system in the eastern Pacific moving west at 14 mph. It is not expected to be a threat to land and should fall apart this weekend. All is still quiet across the Atlantic, Caribbean & Gulf for now with no tropical activity expected for the rest of July. But things could get busy again in August as Saharan dust starts to decrease.

The good news is that tropical systems are not expected to develop in the Gulf of Mexico, Caribbean or Atlantic Ocean through the rest of July. Saharan dust has brought in drier air but is forecast to become less widespread in August. That means hurricane season could get really active as water temperatures remain very warm. In the Eastern Pacific, area of low pressure SW of Mexico now has a medium 50% chance tropical development. Check FOX Local for the latest on the tropics and weather where you live!

Saharan dust is keeping tropical activity under control for now with no tropical systems expected expected over the next 7 days for the Atlantic, Caribbean & Gulf of Mexico. Two systems are being monitored in the eastern Pacific. One area of low pressure is a few hundred miles SSW of Manzanillo, Mexico with a 30% chance of development. The other disturbance is farther out in the eastern Pacific and has a very LOW 10-20% chance for development over the next 2-7 days.

Atlantic, Gulf of Mexico & Caribbean remain quiet for now and should stay quiet through the end of July with thick Saharan dust hindering tropical development across the Atlantic basin. A few systems in the East Pacific have a low shot for development over the next 2-7 days. But these systems, if they development wolf have no impact to the US and are moving away from Central America and Mexico.

Look for limited tropical activity for the rest of the month in the Atlantic Basin. Saharan dust continues to be widespread and thick across the Atlantic Ocean and into the Caribbean. The National Hurricane Center is not expecting tropical development over the next 7 days.

Get ready for a wet week in Houston. Rounds of heavy rain and storms begin on Monday and continue through most of the week. Widespread rain could add up to 3-5 inches in total across Southeast Texas. Be safe moving around as localized flooded is expected at times.

There's a very low 10% chance for a tropical system to develop in the eastern Pacific south of southern Mexico over the next week.

Saharan dust is thick right now across the Atlantic basin and that means very limited tropical activity for the next week. In fact, no tropical systems are expected to form in the next 7 days. Two disorganized tropical waves in the Eastern Pacific only have a low chance for tropical development. The area of low pressure in the western E. Pacific only has a 10% chance. The other disturbance south of S. Mexico has a low 20% chance for tropical development as it moves W/NW.

Saharan dust remains thick across the Atlantic basin and no tropical cyclones are expected over the next week. Two systems in the Eastern Pacific have a low chance of developing into a tropical depression or storm over the next 2 to 7 days. But they will be moving away from the United States.

Gulf of Mexico should remain quiet through the weekend with no tropical activity expected. Area of low pressure near the Carolina coast is not expected to form into a tropical system since it is close to moving on to the Carolina coast. But it will bring heavy rain & the threat for flooding to the Carolinas. In the eastern Pacific, a tropical wave is producing disorganized showers and storms west of Central America. It has a LOW 20% chance for development over the next week.

No tropical activity is expected for the Caribbean or Gulf of Mexico over the next few days. There's a low 10% chance of a tropical system forming off the east coast of Florida.
