Things could get interesting in the Gulf of Mexico as a small area of low pressure in the Bay of Campeche (SW Gulf) is being monitored for tropical cyclone development. The good news is that there’s only a low 20% chance for a tropical depression or tropical storm to form in the next few days. But moisture from that system combined with moisture from tropical systems in the eastern Pacific will combine to spread more moisture our way. That means an increasing chance of some heavy downpours, especially late Tuesday and Wednesday. Right now it does not appear that any of these systems will have a major impact to our weather. But look for 1-2″ of rain possible between Tuesday PM and Wednesday PM for SE Texas. We are also tracking a tropical wave in the eastern Atlantic with now a high chance for tropical cyclone development as it moves WNW over the next few days.
