Rain Chances Increase As Tropical System Expected In The Gulf

July 9, 2019

The National Hurricane Center is continuing to monitor a potential Gulf of Mexico system. A tropical depression is expected to form by the end of the week from a broad area of low pressure moving slowly westward over the northern Gulf. Regardless of the eventually track and intensity of the system, it has the potential to produce heavy rainfall later this week.

At this time, it is too soon to determine the magnitude and intensity of any potential wind or storm surge impacts along the Gulf Coast.
