Louisiana could see impacts from Invest 97-L [Video]

CALL YOUR LOAN SERVICER FOR MORE INFORMATION. JUMPING RIGHT INTO WDSU FIRST WARNING WEATHER ITS ALL EYES ON THE WESTERN CARIBBEAN HERE. CANT FORGET ABOUT FALL STARTED, BUT ITS GOING TO BE INVEST 97. EL WILL BE THE FOCUS OF OUR TOPIC FOR THIS ENTIRE WEEK TO COME. CENTER LOW PRESSURE JUST OFF KIND OF. YOU CAN SEE THE CENTRAL AMERICAN COAST, BELIZE, HONDURAS 80% CHANCE OF DEVELOPMENT WITHIN THIS REGION OVER THE NEXT SEVEN DAYS. A 40% CHANCE JUST OVER THE NEXT TWO DAYS. YOU CAN SEE THE STORM SYSTEM SPINNING. WE GOT A LOT MORE STORM ACTIVITY. THATS KIND OF DEVELOPED ON THE EAST SIDE OF THE STORM, RIGHT THERE. AS YOU CAN SEE IT JUST OFF THE COAST THERE, ACTUALLY THERES BELIZE. THERES HONDURAS, THATS NICARAGUA TO GIVE YOU THE RIGHT PLACEMENT AS WELL. THIS IS THE FORECAST WIND SHEAR OVER THE NEXT TWO DAYS AS IT MOVES NORTH THROUGH THE YUCATAN CHANNEL. IT IS EXPECTED TO MOVE INTO THE GULF WHERE HIGH PRESSURE STARTS TO MOVE A LITTLE BIT FARTHER EAST. THERE IT IS. YOU CAN SEE THIS HIGH PRESSURE. AND HIGH PRESSURE IS NOT GOOD NEWS. THAT IS ACTUALLY FAVORABLE CONDITIONS FOR DEVELOPMENT AS YOU KEEP THE WIND SHEAR DOWN, AS YOU HAVE A LACK OF SOME STRONG WINDS TO TEAR THE STORM APART. NOW, THERE IS SOME DRIER AIR OVER THE GULF THATS THERE AT THIS POINT. YOU SEE, THIS IS MORE HUMID AIR SHOWN BY THE GUIDE. AND THIS IS MORE DRIER AIR. SO THERE ARE A COUPLE OF THINGS THAT COULD HAVE A BIG INFLUENCE ON THE STRENGTHENING OF THIS STORM SYSTEM, BUT ITS MOST ABOUT THE TRACK. FIRST FEW TRACKS COMING IN IN THE GOOD NEWS HERE IS IT IS WELL EAST OF US. HOWEVER, STARTED OFF BY WDSU NEWS HERE AT FIVE BY SAYING I STILL CALL THIS A LOW CONFIDENCE FORECAST BECAUSE THERES A FEATURE HERE IN THE UPPER LEVELS OF THE ATMOSPHERE, ABOUT 18,000FT OR SO, THAT A STORM SYSTEM GETS CUT OFF FROM THE JET STREAM. SO HERES THE SYSTEM WERE TRACKING. THATS 97 NOW, BUT WATCH WHAT HAPPENS IN THE CENTRAL UNITED STATES THAT DROPS IN THROUGH AND THERES THE JET STREAM PATTERN AS IT COMES IN JUST AROUND THE WEST SIDE. AND SOUTH SIDE UP THROUGH ABOUT THE APPALACHIAN MOUNTAINS. HERES OUR STORM. AND WERE ALREADY INTO WEDNESDAY. HIGH PRESSURE STARTS TO MOVE EAST, STARTS TO HAVE AN INFLUENCE OF BRINGING THE STORM NORTH. AND MAYBE NORTHEAST. BUT A LOT OF TIMES THESE STORM SYSTEMS IN AREAS OF LOWS WILL START TO PULL IN OUR NEXT HURRICANE SLASH TROPICAL STORM, WHATEVER IT WILL BE BY THAT TIME. AND AS THAT GETS CUT OFF FROM THE JET STREAM, ITS THERE SPINNING AROUND BY ITSELF. AND THESE STORM SYSTEMS NOTORIOUS FOR BEING TERRIBLY FORECAST BECAUSE ITS NOT BEING STEERED BY ANYTHING. SO THIS THING COULD WOBBLE BACK AND FORTH AND THE PLACEMENT OF THIS IS ABOUT PRETTY FARTHEST WEST. THERES OTHER FORECAST DATA EUROPE, CANADA, GERMANY THAT TAKE THIS A LITTLE FARTHER EAST. THAT MIGHT BE A GOOD THING. BUT AGAIN, THE FORECAST COULD BE THE INFLUENCE PULLS IT IN TOGETHER. RIGHT NOW, LANDFALL IS THE DESTIN APALACHICOLA POINTS MAYBE FARTHER EAST, BUT FURTHER INTO TIME. THAT SYSTEM GETS WRAPPED UP WITH THE STORM OVER THE UNITED STATES. SO INITIAL TRACKS ARE EAST. WELL GET SOME BREEZY, WINDY CONDITIONS OUT OF THIS. IT APPEARS COULD GET SOME STORMS BEFORE IT MOVES IN, BUT THE CUTO
