From the National Hurricane Center:

For the North Atlantic…Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:
Showers and thunderstorms associated with a non-tropical low pressure area centered about 450 miles east-northeast of Bermuda have become better organized during the past several hours. The low has not yet acquired subtropical storm characteristics. However, if current trends continue advisories could be initiated on the system later today or tonight as it moves westward to west-southwestward to the northeast of Bermuda. Subsequently, the low is forecast to move northeastward into a more hostile environment by Saturday night or Sunday. Additional information on this low pressure area can be found in High Seas forecasts issued by the NOAA Ocean Prediction Center and forecast products, including a tropical storm watch, issued by the Bermuda Weather Service. * Formation chance through 48 hours…high…90 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days…high…90 percent.
Recent satellite imagery suggests that a low-level circulation is forming associated with the mid- to upper-level disturbance over the western Gulf of Mexico. However, shower and thunderstorm activity remains disorganized. Environmental conditions are expected to be marginally conducive for development, and a short-lived tropical depression or storm could form before the disturbance moves inland over the northwestern Gulf coast tonight. Regardless of development, the system could produce heavy rainfall over portions of southeastern Texas and southwestern Louisiana during the next few days. Additional information on the rainfall and flooding potential can be found in products issued by your local National Weather Service Forecast Office. * Formation chance through 48 hours…medium…40 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days…medium…40 percent.

The National Hurricane Center is watching a disorganized area in the Gulf of Mexico – off the Texas coast for any development over the next 24 – 36 hours. Currently, they are giving this area a 40% probability of forming into a tropical depression. By the way – that’s up from 20% yesterday.

Spotty to scattered showers are possible today. However, rain is likely in several waves as we go through Saturday – so make your weekend plans accordingly!
