Tropical Storm Cristina is set to bring heavy rain and flash flooding to Central America late week into the weekend. This storm is in the Eastern Pacific with landfall expected in El Salvador as a Tropical Storm is expected Thursday.
Some of the remnants from Cristina will move northward by late weekend-early next week, and rain chances could be enhanced for sections of the Gulf Coast.
A weak low may attempt to form in the Bay of Campeche/southern Gulf this weekend, but tropical development is not expected from the National Hurricane Center.
Tropical depression or tropical storm development appears UNLIKELY in the Gulf; however, the added moisture from this system may uptick rain chances along the northwest Gulf Coast by early next week as it gets entangled with a nearby frontal boundary.
Something to monitor by Monday-Thursday next week as heavy downpours could return to the forecast.
