Storm to trigger flood risk in Florida and may develop tropically
Source: Accuweather
Drenching downpours, gusty winds and strong thunderstorms from a storm that originated from the tropics will affect Florida this week.
The storm only has until the middle of week to acquire some tropical characteristics, so development to a strong tropical storm or hurricane is unlikely, according to AccuWeather Hurricane Expert Dan Kottlowski.
"Water temperatures are marginal for development, but it is possible the system becomes a subtropical depression or storm if it creates a well-defined and strong enough wind field," Kottlowski said.
Alberto is the first name on the list of tropical and subtropical storms for the 2018 Atlantic hurricane season.
