Tropical System Threatens Florida: NHC Monitoring Gulf Disturbance

The National Hurricane Center has stated that there is a high chance of a tropical depression or storm forming from a system moving north towards the Gulf of Mexico, with the potential to hit Florida. The system is becoming more organized with increased thunderstorm activity and a better-defined low-level circulation. If it develops into a named storm, it could become Tropical Storm Idalia. The NHC is also monitoring three other systems in the Atlantic. Tropical Storm Franklin is the only named storm currently active, but it is expected to stay clear of land.
