Toward the middle or end of the week, the National Hurricane Center says there's a 20% chance a tropical wave could develop into a depression in the Gulf of Mexico.
Forecasters said in a 7 a.m. Sunday update that a tropical wave located over Hispaniola and the southwestern Atlantic is expected to enter the southeastern Gulf of Mexico by late Tuesday, move across the central Gulf on Wednesday and reach the northwestern Gulf on Thursday.
"This disturbance is currently producing disorganized shower activity, but environmental conditions are expected to become at least marginally conducive for development by Wednesday or Thursday," hurricane forecaster Jack Beven said.
An area highlighted in yellow on the NHC's tropical weather outlook map isn't intended to be a forecast track; rather, it's meant to indicate the area where a depression might form.
If the wave becomes a tropical storm, its name will be Gonzalo.
