The National Hurricane Center is keeping a close eye on a cluster of thunderstorms off the coast of Florida or possible tropical development later this week. The chances of development of a tropical depression or tropical storm off Florida's east coast are increasing,

Regardless of development, heavy rainfall is expected over portions of Florida, which could bring localized flash flooding through mid-week.

The National Hurricane Center thinks a tropical depression could form in the Gulf in a few days. Forecasters continued to track an area of low pressure that was in the western Atlantic Ocean just east of the Florida peninsula on Tuesday. It is expected to move westward, across the Sunshine State, and into the Gulf by Wednesday.

The National Hurricane Center said Tuesday a system off Florida’s Atlantic coast remains disorganized, but could develop into the season’s next tropical depression or storm after it

A tropical system near Florida is expected to move into the Gulf, bringing rain and potential flooding to Houston and the Gulf Coast. KPRC 2’s meteorologist explains what to expect as the week unfolds.

As a system of low pressure crosses into the Gulf of America, heavy rain is expected across much of Florida during the work week.

A low pressure area located just offshore of the east coast of Florida has a 40% likelihood of evolving into a cyclone within the next 48 hours, the U.S. National Hurricane Center (NHC) said on Tuesday.

The odds of a major rainstorm turning into a tropical storm off the Florida coast have just quadrupled, hurricane forecasters warned Tuesday.
