Still watching the tropics as moisture looks to be readily available as we head into late next week.

Along with warm waters in the Gulf, this could be the hot spot to watch for development in the next 7-10 days for sure. We may even see some spots pop up on the NOAA next week if conditions remain.
Nothing certain, just watching….
