The tropical system poses increasing risks of dangerous wind and storm surge impacts to the Northern Gulf Coast. The system is also expected to bring heavy rain and gusty winds to the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico. Isolated tropical downpours are possible across parts of Texas.

A weather disturbance near the Yucatán Peninsula is causing forecasts of heavy rain, impacting areas including Texas.
