11pm UPDATE: #Erin is slowing down tonight and will head West the next few days. A model split comes Sunday when some head north and others WNW. Intensity forecast is still calling for a major hurricane. Folks should continue to "Be Aware" of what #Erin is doing! Stay with #wesh

No change in tonight's tropical weather outlook from the National Hurricane Center folks. Still a 40% chance to develop into a T.D. Biggest concern is the heavy rain but model tracks tonight are very much in line across #Louisiana. Stay with #weshwx for updates.

8PM TROPICAL UPDATE: NOAA NWS National Hurricane Center has bumped up the odds for development this evening to 40% on Invest 93L over the next 7 days. This has a chance to become a T.D. or even Tropical Storm #Dexter as it heads across #florida and into the #gulf. Stay with #weshwx for updates.

The latest thinking with our latest area of interest is that a slow moving low will move across the #florida peninsula Sunday-Tuesday and bring with it heavy rain that could lead to some flooding isuues. As it moves into the #Gulf there could be some development. Stay with #weshwx for updates.

Looking like a lot of rain next week as an area of low pressure tries to develop in the #Gulf while bringing potentially a lot of rain to #florida. Stay with #weshwx for updates.

Next week an area of low pressure may try and form in the #Gulf . Models currently aren't developing anything significant but heavy rainfall could be an issue if the longer range #GFS is correct. #Euro model isn't as agressive with rainfall amounts. Stay with #weshwx for updates.

Showers and storms have increased with what is now #Invest92. This feature is 100 miles east of Jacksonville, FL. Our spaghetti models want to take this system across the Carolina's. This means that Central Florida will continue to see pockets of heavy rain today.

Development of an area of any low pressure will be slow to occur over next 7 days but the models are leaning more towards the NE Coast of #Florida or along the GA/SC coast. Heavy rainfall still a concern for us this #July4th holiday weekend. Stay with #weshwx for updates.
