Florida will experience continued heavy rain and thunderstorms this week as a stationary front remains over the state. Forecasters are also monitoring the potential for tropical development off the southeastern coast of the U.S. Regardless of tropical development, the area of disturbed weather will bring several inches of rain, gusty winds, and the risk of coastal flooding from Florida to the Carolinas and into the mid-Atlantic states. Inland areas of Florida could see 1 to 2 inches of rain, while coastal areas may experience higher totals. Residents in the Southeast should also prepare for strong winds and potential coastal flooding.

An area of low pressure in the northwest Caribbean or eastern Gulf of Mexico could potentially develop into a tropical depression or storm this weekend into early next week. If a system forms, it is likely to track towards Florida, although the impacts are uncertain. Wind shear is currently high, hindering tropical development, but conditions may become more favorable in the coming days. Floridians are advised to stay updated on the forecast changes and review their preparation plans as we enter the peak of hurricane season.

The National Hurricane Center has tagged the first "area of interest" of the Atlantic hurricane season near the Bahamas, with only a 10% chance of development due to hostile upper-level winds.

A complex weather scenario off the Eastern Seaboard through the Memorial Day weekend could lead to a tropical disturbance developing over the western Atlantic. A cold front will stall over Florida, while spin develops in the upper levels of the atmosphere, leading to a period of heavy rain, rough surf, and gusty winds impacting coastal areas. The combination of gusty winds and rough seas is expected to lead to an enhanced threat from rip currents that could stretch from the Carolinas through the Sunshine State into the Memorial Day weekend. If development happens over a warm pool of water, it is within the realm of possibility that a weak tropical feature could develop off the Southeast coast.

Even if tropical development doesn't occur, some Florida communities are expected to receive between 3 and 6 inches of rainfall. The disturbance near the Bahamas currently has a 10% chance of development into a tropical depression.
