Southeast Gulf of Mexico

.SYNOPSIS...A surface ridge over the Gulf waters will support

area of low pressure is expected to form. Some slow development
of this system is possible thereafter, and a tropical depression
could form as it moves westward and approaches the western Gulf
of Mexico coastline by the middle of next week. This system has
a low chance of development in 48 hours and a medium chance in
the next 7 days.
