An area of low pressure in the Gulf has a 70% chance of developing into an organized system. Warm Gulf waters are favorable for development, but dry air remains a challenge. Hurricane status is currently unlikely, but it may be upgraded to a tropical depression or weak tropical storm.
Further details on the tropical disturbance and the area of low pressure are available, including updates on potential development and impacts.
