There are a few areas to watch, but concern for Florida is basically zero this week
Low pressure is starting to organize off the Carolina coast in the W. Atlantic
This area will head away from the U.S. It may become “Dexter,” but it is of no concern.
Another low-pressure, area is forecast to develop off the Carolina/GA coast late this week
If it develops, it would slowly drift to the north, not toward Florida
This thing may increase the long-term low-pressure onshore wind at our beaches, but that would be it
A tropical wave is about to move off Africa, and we’ll have to watch that one in the long term
