Yet another flooding event is possible, this time along the Gulf Coast on Thursday and Friday, as a tropical disturbance tracks toward Louisiana. The chance that the disturbance will turn into a tropical storm appears slimmer than it was earlier this week.

A sprawling tropical system churning toward the Gulf Coast threatens to bring significant rain and flash flooding this week to a large swath of the southeast, from the Florida panhandle to Louisiana and parts of eastern Texas.

Several Gulf Coast states are at risk of heavy rain this week as a storm system that could become tropical in nature arrives.

A tropical storm may form this week, bringing risks of flash flooding and strong thunderstorms from Florida to Louisiana.
