Tropical development odds grow for Invest 94L
An area of disturbed weather in the eastern Atlantic is continuing on its long journey to the west, and forecasters with the National Hurricane Center (NHC) say it could become a tropical depression as the system moves into an area that’s favorable for tropical development.
The disturbance, which has been designated Invest 94L by the NHC, has a low chance of developing over the next two days, and a medium chance of developing over the next week.
Florida continues to recover in wake of deadly Hurricane Milton
Days after Hurricane Milton made a deadly landfall as a Category 3 storm last week, millions across Florida continue to grapple with the storm's aftermath. The hurricane brought winds over 100 mph, a near-record storm surge and a historic tornado outbreak.
The risk of flooding continues in many parts of the state, and crews are still working to restore power and clear debris. At least 21 people were killed as a result of the storm.
