In a recent update from NBC 2, meteorologists are closely monitoring changes in the Caribbean that could signify a developing tropical system. As of this morning, forecasters reported an increase in the odds of tropical development from 40% to 50% as we approach the weekend. The focus is on an area in the western Caribbean, where clusters of thunderstorms have been noted, particularly one south of Puerto Rico. The National Hurricane Center provided insight into these developments, indicating that while an area of low pressure is anticipated, itβs currently too early to predict its exact course or intensity. Meteorologist Jason Dunning reassured the audience that, despite Halloween being around the corner, there is nothing to panic about at this stage. The weather remains in a 'monitor mode' as forecasters continue to assess the situation. Public safety remains a priority, with updates expected as conditions evolve. Residents are encouraged to stay informed but rest assured that right now, significant storms are not expected to materialize in the immediate future. As always in such scenarios, vigilance is advisable as weather patterns can change rapidly.
