Other than that tropical disturbance we've been tracking this week, there's really nothing else happening across the Gulf, the Caribbean Sea or the Atlantic Ocean, at least not yet. We're still in a time of the hurricane season where it's not at all unusual to have little to no activity,

A tropical disturbance that made its way from Florida is now over the northern Gulf and is expected to bring heavy rain and flash flooding to the region on Thursday and Friday. The NOAA's National Hurricane Center (NHC) reported Thursday that the associated shower and thunderstorm activity remained disorganized and located mainly to the west and southwest of the center.

Its chances for tropical development are less, but rainfall flooding is a threat, regardless, in the lower Mississippi Valley. Here's our latest forecast.
