Tropical Update
Tracking a broad area of low pressure moving across the Florida Panhandle. This system is forecast to continue moving west and could emerge or redevelop over the northern portion of the Gulf, reaching the coast of Louisiana by Thursday. If this system moves far enough offshore, environmental conditions over the Gulf appear generally favorable for additional development, and a tropical depression could form over the next couple of days before the system moves fully inland by the end of the week.
* Formation chance through 48 hours: Medium (40%)
* Formation chance through 7 days: Medium (40%)
