Both AccuWeather and the National Hurricane Center have raised the chances of tropical development around the July 4 weekend.

The chance of a tropical system developing on July 4th continue to increase, but there's a silver lining. The tropical system has a 60% chance for development over the next seven days and a 20% chance over the next 48 hours.

The Fourth of July looks pretty wet overall for the state of Florida, especially the peninsula,” AccuWeather’s Alex DaSilva said earlier this week, and that’s the attitude weather officials are adopting with as the National Hurricane Center reports a 40% chance of tropical development along a front stuck over the Sunshine State.
