Discussion
Low pressure will pull out of the Gulf of Mexico and impact the region later today into Saturday. The tropical system is likely to become a named tropical storm (Nestor) and it could result in some severe thunderstorm activity here later tonight into tomorrow. Any thunderstorm that forms late today/tonight can contain torrential downpours and damaging wind gusts of 50-60 mph. Drier air is likely to push in on Sunday following the passage of the low as it pulls away to our north and east.
