Update on Gulf Disturbance

Earlier today, a surface low developed south of the panhandle of Florida in the eastern Gulf of Mexico, and forecasters at the National Hurricane Center marked the area of showers and thunderstorms as possible for tropical development.

The latest surface analysis has relocated the low farther to the south and west. Computer models show the system has the possibility of developing into a tropical depression in the next 24 to 48 hours. However, even as these models show it developing, it tracks to the south and west of SE Louisiana keeping most of the heavy winds away from us. We may see some additional rainfall and breezy conditions Sunday night through Tuesday.
