The area of low pressure, gusty winds and rain has the potential for development as we head into Thursday. The center is likely to affect Louisiana.
Regardless of how strong the winds get, there will be very heavy rain along the coast from the panhandle to Louisiana, with the chance for 1-2 inches or more in some spots.
It is usually pretty quiet at this point in a typical hurricane season, with it ramping up through August and peaking on average around the second week in September.
Severe Weather Team 2 will be tracking the system in the Gulf LIVE on Channel 2 Action News.
