Forecasters are warning of early signs of a potential tropical cyclone developing along the northeastern Gulf of Mexico. 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 National Hurricane Center (NHC).

Regardless of how the system develops, the National Weather Service said in a Wednesday morning update that "a surge of tropical moisture could enhance the risk of showers and thunderstorms" in Southeast Texas by the end of the week.
