By the weekend, the system will move farther away from us and closer to the northern Gulf Coast or Texas. As it organizes and consolidates moisture around its circulation, some drier air may build over the Suncoast. This should help reduce our rain chances somewhat by the weekend.

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.

Southeast Texas residents should prepare for possible flash flooding and heavy rainfall as a weak tropical system moves in this weekend.

South Florida could see some street flooding Monday and Tuesday, thanks to a potential tropical system brewing near the north end of the state. The Miami office of the National Weather Service called for a flood watch - when there's a chance of flooding but it's not yet happening - for Monday afternoon and Tuesday in urban southeast Florida.

A potential tropical system is likely to move across Florida on Tuesday bringing a good chance for some heavy rain.

Many MS counties are under heat advisory. NWS says parts of the state can expect heavy rain from a tropical weather system this week. What to know

The odds have increased that a tropical depression will form in the Gulf this week, but first, the tropical system has to cross Florida and dump even more rain on the state. On Tuesday morning, the National Hurricane Center upped the chances of development to 40% in the next two to seven days.

South Florida will see a soggy start to its week due to a potential tropical system that is forecast to form in the Gulf and then move across Florida, the National Weather Service said Sunday.
