More Fireworks in the Gulf?


Alex has dissipated over the mountainous terrain of Mexico, but a new disturbance is now trying to develop in the northern Gulf of Mexico. This system should be slow to develop, but as you can see from the model spaghetti plot above, there is a consensus for an eventual track over Mississippi. The gulf waters are very warm and a ridge is in place over the area, so this system will need to be watched closely.
