Development Chances Growing For Disturbance In Southern Gulf of Mexico

Forecasters at the National Hurricane Center are bumping up the chance of tropical development in the Gulf of Mexico in a few days.

"A large and complex area of low pressure is expected to develop across Central America, the Yucatan Peninsula, and the southwest Gulf of Mexico in a few days, partially related to the remnants of Hurricane Agatha from the eastern Pacific," said the NHC Monday morning. "Some gradual development is possible within this system in the far southwest Gulf of Mexico around mid-week or in the northwest Caribbean by the latter part of this week as it drifts eastward or northeastward."

At this time, it does not appear that this system to will impact the northern Gulf Coast.

The 2022 Atlantic hurricane season officially begins June 1.
