Tropical disturbance no longer a threat to Tampa Bay but brings flooding risk to northern Gulf Coast
TAMPA, Fla. — The National Hurricane Center and the 10 Tampa Bay weather team continue to monitor a system in the Gulf that is no longer a threat to the Tampa Bay area but will continue to bring heavy rain and the potential for flash flooding to parts of the northern Gulf Coast.
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 storm remains disorganized on Wednesday but still has time to strengthen over the Gulf before making landfall on Thursday.
The National Hurricane Center has highlighted an area it's watching in the Gulf. Right now, there's a low chance for development.
