In the tropics, we’re watching a low several hundred miles east of the Bahamas. This feature has a low chance of becoming a depression before reaching the southeast U.S. coast on Friday or Saturday. But it will bring plenty of tropical moisture to the region — and South Florida will see some of it in the next few days.
The area of disturbed weather in the southwestern Gulf of Mexico has been designated Potential Tropical Cyclone # 1 by the National Hurricane Center — and it’s likely to become Tropical Storm Alberto at any time. Tropical storm warnings are in effect from Port O’Connor, Texas to Puerto de Altamira, Mexico. Flooding rains and damaging winds are expected in the area well before the system reaches the coast early on Thursday. Much of southern Texas could see heavy rain as well.
As if that isn’t enough, another disturbance is forecast to form in the southwestern Gulf of Mexico over the weekend. This feature has a low chance of development right now, but its expected track to the north or northwest is likely to bring additional heavy rain to coastal Texas and northeastern Mexico.
