States along the Gulf Coast could see heavy rainfall from a low-pressure system currently off the northeastern Florida coast.
There's a chance the storm could form within the next 48 hours. Even if it doesn't, Florida is expecting heavy rain.
The Florida Panhandle will see heavy rainfall from Invest 93L after it reaches the Gulf on Wednesday. The greatest threat to the area at the moment is flash flooding in low-lying, poor-drainage areas and urban locations. Invest 93L is currently expected to make landfall near Louisiana's southeastern coast Thursday morning.
Hurricane center forecasters said the system, designated as Invest 93L, is forecast to continue moving westward and could emerge or redevelop.
"Heavy rain is already moving through Louisiana and will continue over the next few days," AccuWeather's Alex DaSilva said.
A wet and rainy Florida could soon see even more precipitation in the coming days, according to the National Weather Service, which has warned the Gulf Coast will face a flood-generating system that could form into Tropical Storm Dexter.
The 2025 Atlantic hurricane season continues to show signs of activity, and there’s a growing chance we’ll soon be tracking our next named storm. So far this season, three named storms have already formed.
