BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2022 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — It’s okay to exhale. The National Hurricane Center, in its Friday afternoon update, says the tropical wave that seems to be on an ominous trajectory for South Florida is unlikely to survive the first part of next week.
While it’s still too early to predict exactly what will happen, it seems the chance of this becoming a problem is significantly lower now than it was a day ago.
The National Hurricane Center issued this “outlook” Friday evening:
Eastern Tropical Atlantic: Showers and thunderstorms associated with a tropical wave located several hundred miles southwest of the Cabo Verde Islands have decreased during the past several hours. Environmental conditions appear only marginally conducive for gradual development through the weekend while the wave moves generally westward at about 10 mph. Further development will become unlikely by early next week due to increasing upper-level winds.
- Formation chance through 48 hours…low…10 percent.
- Formation chance through 5 days…low…10 percent.
