Another possible tropical system in the Gulf

Post-Tropical Helene continues to wind down over the Tennessee Valley region. There's still a low flash flood risk today from Cincinnati to St. Louis to Nashville. Hurricane Isaac and Tropical Storm Joyce are still churning in the central Atlantic but are expected to stay out to sea. We are closely monitoring a tropical wave in the eastern Atlantic now with a HIGH 70% chance to become a tropical system over the next week. There's also an area of concern in the western Caribbean where models indicate an area of low pressure may form over the next 7 days. This means another tropical system could be rolling through the Gulf of Mexico by late next week. Right now there's a MEDIUM 50% chance of this happening.
