The National Weather Service in Tallahassee, FL, reports a potential tropical depression forming north-northeast, likely moving into the eastern Big Bend by Friday. While there is a chance of a tropical storm developing, the system is expected to remain sheared and disorganized. Anticipated impacts include heavy rainfall (1-2 inches, up to 3 inches in eastern Bend), increased coastal tides, and 9-11 feet seas offshore. Models indicate uncertain development over the next 48 hours, though many suggest the system will not reach tropical storm strength.
