Hurricane Formation in the Gulf of Mexico Weather
Forecasters stated that by next week, Florida might be affected by a growing tropical system in the Caribbean that isn’t even a depression or storm yet. The system is headed for the Gulf of Mexico weather.
According to Chris Dolce, a meteorologist with Weather.com, “the likelihood of a tropical depression or storm forming has increased in Gulf of Mexico weather, especially for later this weekend into early next week.” It’s too soon to say how much this system will damage Florida, but it will probably hit sometime between Tuesday and Wednesday.
Idalia (pronounced “ee-DAL-ya”), the following named storm of the 2023 Atlantic hurricane season, will make landfall. According to the National Hurricane Center, there is an 80% likelihood that this system will develop. Environmental conditions appear favorable for the gradual development of this system during the next several days.
