A SURFACE LOW PRESSURE AREA CENTERED OVER SOUTHERN TEXAS BETWEEN EDINBURG AND HARLINGEN IS MOVING NORTHWARD AT 5 TO 10 MPH. THIS SYSTEM IS GENERATING A LARGE AREA OF SHOWERS...THUNDERSTORMS AND STRONG GUSTY WINDS IN SQUALLS OVER PORTIONS OF THE WESTERN GULF OF MEXICO AND THE ADJACENT COASTAL AREAS. UPPER-LEVEL WINDS HAVE BECOME SOME WHAT MORE FAVORABLE FOR A TROPICAL DEPRESSION TO DEVELOP...BUT ONLY IF THE SYSTEM CENTER MOVES OR REFORMS OFFSHORE OVER THE GULF OF MEXICO. REGARDLESS OF WHETHER A TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMS...THIS SYSTEM IS LIKELY TO BRING LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL TO PORTIONS OF SOUTHERN TEXAS...THE TEXAS COASTAL BEND REGION...AND SOUTHERN LOUISIANA DURING THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS.
