Florida, Gulf and tropical weather
Digest more
Regardless of development, heavy rainfall is expected over portions of Florida, which could bring localized flash flooding through mid-week.
A disorganized low-pressure area off Florida is showing increasing chances of becoming a tropical depression or tropical storm this week.
Houston faces a dry Wednesday as high pressure moves in, but the tropical system Invest 93L could send downpours to Southeast Texas by Thursday.
A low-pressure system will bring pockets of heavy rain and thunderstorms across Central Florida. Invest 93-L is expected to bring around 1 to 5 inches in some areas as it moves over Florida. The system is moving onshore Tuesday and will bring significant rainfall across Central Florida.
South Florida could see some street flooding Monday and Tuesday, thanks to a potential tropical system brewing near the north end of the state. The Miami office of the National Weather Service called for a flood watch - when there's a chance of flooding but it's not yet happening - for Monday afternoon and Tuesday in urban southeast Florida.
