This is an up to the minute update as of 4:13 pm Texas Time. The monster moisture machine that may become a tropical terror is growing large and baffling spaghetti hurricane models.

lets be cool, stay cool, be aware and prepared
for which ever way this thing goes. 

Momma2 bets Brownsville Texas.
The East coast is my guess.

tropical subtropical invest 92L & invest 93L
it's dangerous no matter what they call it


At the moment, no one really knows.

God bless everyone,

There is a high chance that a tropical or subtropical depression or storm will form in the Gulf of Mexico or northwest Caribbean.

Added moisture will enhance rainfall along parts of the Gulf Coast if even development does not occur.

Flooding is possible this week along the Gulf Coast from the heavy rain.

A separate system is being monitored in the Atlantic for development.

The northwest Caribbean and the Gulf of Mexico are being monitored closely for the potential development of a tropical or subtropical depression or storm early this week. A threat of heavy rain and flooding may develop along parts of the U.S. Gulf Coast early this week no matter where this future system eventually tracks.


Current satellite imagery shows vigorous shower and thunderstorm activity in the northwestern Caribbean in association with a broad area of low pressure that has developed.

The National Hurricane Center (NHC) has dubbed this system Invest 93L and says it has a high chance of developing into a tropical or subtropical depression or storm. A hurricane hunter investigative flight has been tentatively scheduled for Monday.

A well-defined low-pressure system is needed for a tropical depression or tropical storm to organize, and that hasn't happened yet. The next named storm in the Atlantic Basin will be "Bret."

In the near term, heavy rainfall from Invest 93L will affect portions of Central America, the Yucatan Peninsula, Jamaica, the Cayman Islands and western Cuba.

U.S. Threat: Heavy Rain, Flooding Possible Along Gulf Coast

Most of the forecast guidance suggests the area of low pressure will track in a north or northwest direction through the Gulf of Mexico early this week. As this occurs, parts of the U.S. Gulf Coast and Florida will see increasing moisture, which will fuel heavy rainfall.

That said, forecast guidance is not in agreement on exactly where the low will track in relation to the U.S. Gulf Coast. That makes a large difference when it comes to pinning down exactly where the heaviest rain will occur.

Florida will be the first area to experience this influx of moisture, resulting in heavy downpours Sunday into Monday. Other parts of the northern, central and western Gulf Coast could also see heavy rain depending on the track of this system Tuesday-Thursday.

This heavy rain could eventually lead to flooding in some areas, but it's too early to determine where the greatest amounts will fall.

A low that tracks toward the Florida Panhandle would increase the threat of heavy rain there and in other parts of the Southeast. Meanwhile, a track toward northern Mexico, Texas or Louisiana would lead to the possibility of heavier rains on the central and western Gulf Coast along with areas farther east.

It should be noted that the majority of the rain will be on the northern and eastern side of the low-pressure system and could affect areas well away from its center.

Portions of the Gulf Coast may also see an increase in gusty winds, high surf and rip currents this week.

The uncertainty in the track of this system is due to a southward dip in the jet stream developing early this week in the eastern states.

A greater influence from that jet stream will tend to lift this system farther north toward the northeastern Gulf Coast. If that jet stream dip has less of an influence, a track toward Texas or northern Mexico can be expected.

The jet stream energy could also cause this system to be subtropical in nature, meaning it would have characteristics of a tropical and non-tropical low.

All interests along the U.S. Gulf Coast should continue to monitor this situation. Check back with weather.com during the days ahead for updates on this potential system.

Eastern Atlantic Disturbance

A tropical wave in the central Atlantic Ocean is also being monitored for development by the NHC. This area has been given a medium chance of development through the middle of this week.
