Tracking the tropics
Meanwhile, the National Hurricane Center is keeping tabs on a weather system in the Gulf of Mexico.
As of Wednesday morning, a disorganized area of showers is located over the northwestern Gulf.
"This area, associated with a frontal boundary, will meander across the northern Gulf for the next couple days," News 6 meteorologist Troy Bridges said.
The hurricane center said there's a 20% chance of tropical development over the next two days.
"Computer models are having a hard time getting this thing developed," Bridges said. "We will watch it closely, though."
