Live tracking map, satellite images and forecasts of Disturbance 1 over the Yucatán Peninsula. Low chance of development.
Southwestern Gulf of Mexico: A large area of disturbed weather has formed over Central America, the Yucatán Peninsula of Mexico, and the adjacent waters of the northwestern Caribbean Sea. A broad area of low pressure is forecast to form from this system over the southwestern Gulf of Mexico in a day or two. Environmental conditions appear conducive for gradual development of this system, and a tropical depression could form by midweek while it moves slowly westward or west-northwestward.
Regardless of development, several days of heavy rainfall are expected across portions of southern Mexico and Central America. These rains are likely to cause life-threatening flooding and flash flooding.
