Tropical Update: Potential systems being monitored

During this second week of hurricane season, tropics are heating up with 3 potential systems the national hurricane center is monitoring. One is off the southeast US coast with a low chance for development. The second is in the southern Gulf of Mexico with now a MEDIUM 40% chance to develop into a tropical system. The third is in the eastern Pacific with just a low shot to become a tropical depression or storm. The disturbance in the Gulf will likely stay south of Houston but will bring tropical moisture and higher rain chances next week.
