Tropical Weather Update – July 4, 2025
At 8:00 AM EDT on Friday, July 4, 2025, the National Hurricane Center (NHC) issued an update on an area of low pressure, designated #92L, located approximately 100 miles off the northeast coast of Florida. The system is exhibiting increased showers and thunderstorms, with a 60% probability of developing into a tropical or subtropical depression by late today or Saturday. An Air Force Reserve Hurricane Hunter aircraft is scheduled to investigate the system later today to provide further data.
The low pressure system is expected to drift northward and move inland over the southeastern United States on Saturday night or early Sunday. Heavy rainfall is forecasted for portions of west-central and southwestern Florida through early Saturday, with additional heavy rain anticipated along coastal sections of the Carolinas beginning later on Saturday. The NHC notes that the system is likely to remain short-lived.
A related update from the Florida Storm Chasers indicates that no areas in Florida are currently under a slight threat level, though marginal impacts, primarily in the form of rain, are possible across much of the peninsula. The NHC’s 7-day graphical tropical weather outlook, released this morning, supports these findings, showing the system’s current position and potential track.
