There’s growing concern a potential tropical system could bring significant flooding to the Gulf Coast, but questions remain in the forecast.

All of Southeast Louisiana is under a multi-day Flood Watch due to a Gulf disturbance expected to bring extreme amounts of rain to the area.

A flood watch will go into effect for much of south Louisiana later this week as a slow-moving low-pressure system heads toward the Gulf of Mexico, bringing with it the potential for downpours and flash flooding along the Gulf Coast.

If the storm were to speed up, it would push the tropical rain across the central Gulf Coast. A storm which stalls over the Gulf or Louisiana could result in more widespread heavy rain and flooding.

A weather system moving across Florida has the potential to develop into a tropical depression as it moves across the Gulf later in the week.

A low-pressure system that could bring storms to Florida before moving west has a medium chance of developing into a tropical cyclone over the next several days, according to the

A disorganized low-pressure area off Florida is showing increasing chances of becoming a tropical depression or tropical storm this week.

At least 2-3 inches of rainfall is possible over Florida's Gulf Coast region and the inland areas through Thursday.
