MYRTLE BEACH, SC (WMBF) - Only two days into the Atlantic hurricane season and area of weak tropical development is possible off the coast of the Carolinas. An area of low pressure is forecast to develop off the Southeastern US coast over the next few days and then lift northeast. As the low pressure passes over very warm waters, it will have a low risk of taking on some tropical characteristics. The National Hurricane Center is giving the system a 10% chance of development over the next 5 days.

MYRTLE BEACH, SC (WMBF) - The latest update from the US Drought Monitor shows some improvements from last week’s rainfall.

Dryness and drought in these areas – mostly in northern Georgia – improved.

Decent storm with frequent lightning west of Conway and drifting northeast. Gusts to 40 mph are possible. #SCwx @wmbfnews https://t.co/52ZTgeu9W4
Like clockwork. Pop up showers are developing along the seabreeze as it slowly pushes inland. This will push the best chance of storms to inland areas for the rest of the afternoon. #SCwx @WMBFnews https://t.co/V2o3ZGt8MA
It's no surprise the local drought has been wiped out from recent storms. 3 months ago, 68% of Horry County was in SEVERE drought. Today, that number is 0%. We still need a bit more to finish it once and for all and we'll likely see that happen this weekend. #SCwx @WMBFnews https://t.co/H8zRh0t12z
