What happened
A trough of low pressure in the Gulf near Mexico is expected to become a tropical depression or potentially a tropical storm, which forecasters say could bring torrential rain and flooding to the Gulf Coast states this week. The system, which has a 90% chance of developing into a tropical depression or storm within two to seven days, is showing organization and is expected to track toward the U.S. Gulf Coast this weekend. The system is named Isaias.
Why it matters
The warm Gulf waters are fueling the system, which experts say could produce a heavy rain event for the Gulf Coast and Florida. Forecasters are confident that the mass has a high chance of evolving into a tropical depression or storm, capable of producing substantial rain totals.
Storm systems are moving up the Eastern Seaboard, bringing rain chances to the affected states.
