The National Hurricane Center (NHC) is watching an area of low pressure located near Northeastern Mexico that continues to produce disorganized, thunderstorm activity.
The low is forecast to drift north over southern Texas before re-emerging in the golf late Tuesday or Wednesday where conditions may support tropical development around midweek.
Regardless, heavy rainfall, flash flooding, and gusty winds are possible across southeastern Texas through the Louisiana coast this week.
