Alert - Weather, Wednesday, August 12, 1500 Hours

Thanks for the feedback you have put in the comment section of the blog. Many people benefit from these comments. Agencies also benefit from the information. From the feedback, there were thunderstorms in Kingston. Black River had no rain. There was rain in Portmore and heavy rain in Spanish Town.

We now have Invest 92 and Invest 94 in the Atlantic Ocean. The following is a report from the National Hurricane Centre:

What is an Invest?An Invest is an area of disturbed weather that is under investigation for its potential to develop into a tropical depression or tropical storm.
Invest 92Central Tropical Atlantic: An area of showers and thunderstorms associated with a tropical wave is located about 950 miles west-southwest of the Cabo Verde Islands.
Environmental conditions are forecast to be conducive for development during the next couple of days, and a tropical depression will likely form while the system moves westward to west-northwestward across the central tropical Atlantic.
Invest 94Eastern Tropical Atlantic: A tropical wave located several hundred miles south of the Cabo Verde Islands is producing disorganized showers and thunderstorms.
Environmental conditions are forecast to be generally conducive for some development of this system during the next several days while it moves westward or west-northwestward across the eastern and central tropical Atlantic.

There is an 80% chance of Invest 92L developing into a hurricane within the next two to seven days. There is a 20% and 40% probability that Invest 94L will develop into a hurricane within two to seven days, respectively.
Tomorrow will be another hot day in Jamaica, and we expect Invest 92L to bring some more rain.
