<\/p>\nRedevelopment less likely for remnants of Dolly as Invest 97-L drifts near Panhandle, NHC says<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The National Hurricane Center<\/a> continues to track two tropical Atlantic disturbances this weekend, giving the one closest to Florida \u2014 Invest 97-L, a weak low in the Gulf that’s expected to drift west \u2014 slightly better formation chances over the next week.<\/p>\n This content is imported from facebook.

Tropical Storm Dolly)<\/p>\n Showers and thunderstorm continue in association with the remnants of Tropical Storm Dolly, located about 150 miles east of the Leeward Islands, according to the NHC’s 8 p.m. update Saturday. However, there are no signs that the system is developing a closed circulation. <\/p>\n Redevelopment of this system is unlikely while it moves westward to west-northwestward near 25 mph. The wave could bring locally heavy rains and gusty winds to portions of the Leeward Islands, the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico over the next several days. <\/p>\n Formation chance through next 48 hours: Near 0%Formation chance through next seven days: 10%Disturbance 2 (Invest 97-L)<\/p>\n A weak low pressure area located around 125 miles south of Pensacola, Florida is producing showers and thunderstorms, the NHC’s website states. <\/p>\n Some additional slow development of this system is possible during the next few days as it drifts westward across the northern Gulf.<\/p>\n Formation chance through next 48 hours: Near 0%Formation chance through next seven days: 20% Dolly<\/p>\n Tropical Storm Dolly was the fourth named storm of the Atlantic season. The name was pure coincidence to the death of music icon Dolly Parton earlier this week. <\/p>\n Tracking the Tropics<\/p>\n Stay with WESH 2 online and on-air for the most accurate Central Florida weather forecast.<\/p>\n Download the WESH 2 News app<\/a> to get the most up-to-date weather alerts.<\/p>\n The First Warning Weather team includes First Warning Chief Meteorologist Tony Mainolfi<\/a>, Eric Burris<\/a>, Cam Tran<\/a>, Victoria Wisniewski<\/a> and Luke Vickery<\/a>.<\/p>\n >> 2026 hurricane season | WESH long-range forecast RESOURCES | HURRICANE SUPPLIES<\/a> | SURVIVAL GUIDE<\/a> | HURRICANE SEASON SPECIAL<\/a> | WESH LONG-RANGE FORECAST<\/a> | WHAT TO KNOW ABOUT INSURANCE<\/a> | GENERATOR SETUP<\/a> | TESTING CHAINSAWS<\/a> | POST-STORM RESOURCES<\/a> | DOWNLOAD WESH 2 APP<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Redevelopment less likely for remnants of Dolly as Invest 97-L drifts near Panhandle, NHC says The National Hurricane…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":71911,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[4],"tags":[33866,37136,12522,37137,14964,18522,8,20068,36925,18975,33040,36924,36926,29448,9,37139,6076,33865,36923,36781,4175,37138,5998,36783,36782,36921,4464,7,5999,36323,36922,3225,23482,7680,37135,25879,33897],"class_list":["post-71910","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-top-stories","tag-atlantic","tag-atlantic-system","tag-caribbean","tag-disorganized-shower","tag-dolly","tag-gusty-wind","tag-headlines","tag-heavy-rain","tag-hurricane-dolly","tag-hurricane-season","tag-hurricane-tracker","tag-is-there-a-storm-coming-to-florida","tag-leeward-islands","tag-national-hurricane-center","tag-news","tag-next-several-day","tag-next-week","tag-nhc","tag-noaa-hurricane","tag-noaa-hurricane-center","tag-puerto-rico","tag-redevelopment","tag-remnant","tag-resource","tag-storm-dolly","tag-storm-tampa","tag-sunday","tag-top-stories","tag-tropical-storm","tag-tropical-storm-dolly","tag-tropical-storm-dolly-track","tag-warning","tag-watch","tag-weekend","tag-well-formation-chance","tag-wesh","tag-wesh-long-range-forecast"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":"Validation failed: Text character limit of 500 exceeded"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/71910","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=71910"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/71910\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/71911"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=71910"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=71910"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=71910"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
