Tropics Update: Tropical system possibly developing in Mexico

ORLANDO, Fla. — Our next tropical system may develop in the coming days off the coast of Mexico.

An area of low pressure has formed in the Bay of Campeche and is expected to organize further in the coming days.

This system is likely to become a tropical depression early-to-mid next week.

The complex is expected to lift northward and could impact Texas and Louisiana later next week.

The next named storm will be ‘Francene’.

Elsewhere, another area of low pressure in the open Atlantic may develop further next week.

This could become a tropical depression as it moves westward.

A third tropical wave may slowly organize some in the far eastern Atlantic next week.

Currently, none of these systems are threatening Florida.
