(Reuters) – A disturbance over the Bay of Campeche and southern Mexico has a 40% chance of becoming a cyclone, the U.S. National Hurricane Center (NHC) said on Tuesday, adding the system should begin to move northward by Thursday.
“A tropical depression is likely to form late in the week when the low moves across the central and northwestern Gulf of Mexico… Heavy rains could also begin to impact portions of the northern Gulf Coast on Friday,” the NHC said.
