CNN
A developing tropical disturbance near the southern Gulf of Mexico could become the Atlantic basin's next named storm and has the potential of impacting the US as early as Sunday.
This tropical wave is currently located over Mexico near the Yucatan Peninsula but will track over the Bay of Campeche and Gulf of Mexico tonight. In the short-term, heavy rain will affect eastern portions of Mexico between now and at least Monday, threatening the region with flash flooding and mudslides. Some locations could receive more than 4 inches of rain.More Related News
