National Hurricane Center Monitors Multiple Systems with Flooding Threats

Heavy rains expected along Texas coast as three tropical disturbances show potential for development in the Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico.

  • A low-pressure system near the Texas coast is forecast to bring heavy rains and potential flash flooding over the next few days.
  • Tropical disturbances near the Lesser Antilles and off Africa's coast have medium chances of developing into cyclones this week.
  • Forecasters predict a resurgence in Atlantic hurricane activity as the season progresses, with conditions becoming more favorable.
  • The 2024 hurricane season has seen five named storms so far, with experts anticipating up to 24 named storms in total.
  • Urban areas are particularly vulnerable to flash flooding due to impervious surfaces and rapid water runoff.
