The tropical development in the northern Gulf of Mexico this week is expected to be limited due to its close proximity to land, but it will still pose a danger for the millions who reside across the region.

Yet another flooding event is possible, this time along the Gulf Coast on Thursday and Friday, as a tropical disturbance tracks toward Louisiana. The chance that the disturbance will turn into a tropical storm appears slimmer than it was earlier this week.

A tropical weather system near the Florida Panhandle is showing a moderate chance of becoming a tropical depression.
