The National Hurricane Center is showing an area of 20% chance of development in the Main Development Region of the Atlantic Ocean along the Intertropical Convergence Zone, a line of thunderstorms that is often found north of the equator this time of year. The NHC gives the area of disturbed weather just a 20% chance of occurrence because it is expected to move westward into the Caribbean, where there is strong wind shear that will keep the area from developing into a full-fledged storm. Because of that, the area is not expected to be a threat to the Southeast. Of more concern is the remains of Investigation 93, which has the potential for doing a loop over the Southeast and then reemerging over the northern Gulf, where it has another chance of developing. This may result in additional rain over the region in the next week as it does the loop, although it may not be a lot.
