Discussion
Two tropical waves are in rather close proximity with the Florida Peninsula with one to its west over the eastern Gulf of Mexico and the other to the east near the Bahamas. Both of these systems will drift westward over the next few days so that by the early part of next week they may be together over the warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico. There is some chance of intensification in both cases, but reaching tropical storm status is no guarantee for either. The combination of the two systems will, however, contribute to some significant rainfall in Florida over the next couple of days as well as along portions of the northern Gulf coastal region.
