A return to near seasonal temperatures is expected through next week, as the dome of high pressure, and very hot to near triple digit heat breaks down and drops daytime highs to the lower 90's. The reason for this change, a transition to a wet weather pattern. Showers and thunderstorms will track along an approaching cold front on Monday. Cooler air and convective storms along the aforementioned cold front will mix out the overly heated air and downdrafts will cool surface temperatures back to seasonal averages. Tracking the Tropics:An area of low pressure along the Northern Gulf of Mexico Coast has a low (20%) chance of tropical SLOW cyclone develop over the next 5 days. Disturbance #2 will track WESTWARD away from Southeast Louisiana to the Northern Gulf Coast, then then off to the West toward Texas. Models shown for Monday have Disturbance #2 pushing away from our coastal area late Monday and early Tuesday creating great distance from SELA on a path westward. Next: Tropical Wave Invest 94-L tracking over the Central Atlantic will continue moving toward the Windward island by Tuesday. From there enter the Southern Caribbean Wednesday/Thursday and track toward Central America near Costa Rica, Honduras, and possibly the Eastern Pacific. Tropical Wave Invest 94-L is moving West at 17 mph, producing winds of 25 mph, pressure 1011 MB and has a 30% chance of cyclone development in 48 hours, 60% chance of development in 5 days. The tropical environment along the mentioned path is conducive for development. A tropical depression could form by Monday into Wednesday of next week.
