Tropical Update: First tropical wave in the Gulf

The first tropical wave of the season has formed in the eastern Gulf of Mexico, Invest 90-L. Tropical moisture from this new disturbance in the eastern Gulf of Mexico will bring a big flood threat to South Florida in the next few days. This disturbance will not impact SE Texas. But another big plume of tropical moisture is forecast to surge into the Gulf early next week. There's a chance a weak Gulf low could develop. But whether we get a tropical system or not, our rain chances will likely be going up early next week. So plan on more rain that could be heavy at times on Monday and Tuesday. Keep checking back as we get more model updates.
