Summary
Invest 90L was designated Monday afternoon near South Texas, with forecasters giving the disorganized low a 50% chance of becoming at least a tropical depression within seven days.
The system is producing scattered showers and thunderstorms near South Texas and is expected to move over the Gulf late Tuesday or Wednesday, where conditions may allow only marginal development.
Rainfall, not wind, is the main threat: parts of Texas, Louisiana and Mississippi could receive 5 to 10 inches late this workweek, raising flooding risks in some communities.
Florida faces no threat from the disturbance regardless of whether it develops; if it strengthens into a tropical storm, the first Atlantic name would be Arthur.
