Invest 93L is taking its time moving across Florida, and it could still become a tropical depression later this week.

A disturbance called Invest 93L by the National Hurricane Center could turn into a tropical depression or the next named storm of hurricane season.

As Tropical Disturbance 93L treks west of Orlando, we’ve already received over 7 to 8 inches of rain along the coast, and a large 1-4″ swath generally north of Orlando.

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

The National Weather Service in Mobile will also be closely watching the system and expects the risk for rip currents along the Alabama and northwest Florida coasts to increase to moderate by Wednesday and high by Thursday, which means swimming in the Gulf will be hazardous.
