Tropical Weather Outlook:
Forecasters are still monitoring the development of a low-pressure system in the Atlantic, which could influence rain coverage heading into the weekend.
The strength and position of that system—and the ridge building back in early next week—could impact how widespread or intense storms become. It’s also unclear whether any of these storms will reach severe levels.
