The system’s slow passage over Florida has meant days of rain throughout the state, leading to street flooding in South Florida. However, the Miami office of the National Weather Service expects the rain to slow down, alleviating any concerns about deep flooding.

The National Hurricane Center on Tuesday increased its forecast chances a system already dumping rain on Florida could develop into the season’s next tropical depression or storm.

A disorganized low-pressure area off Florida is showing increasing chances of becoming a tropical depression or tropical storm this week.

Unlike Monday, which was a deluge for South Florida, today’s tropical-system-related rain is expected to be more concentrated in the center of the state. The Miami office of the National Weather Service predicts South Florida could see around 1 inch of rain on Tuesday and Wednesday, not enough for any severe flooding.

Current projections call for 4 to 8 inches of rain from Florida through coastal Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana, with isolated totals as high as 16 inches.Wind gusts could reach 40 to 60 mph in parts of southeastern Louisiana,

The area of low pressure located off the east coast of Florida is now Invest 93-L, according to the National Hurricane Center. The disturbance is forecast to move westward across Florida during the next day or so, and into the northeastern Gulf by late Tuesday.

South Florida could see some street flooding Monday and Tuesday, thanks to a potential tropical system brewing near the north end of the state. The Miami office of the National Weather Service called for a flood watch - when there's a chance of flooding but it's not yet happening - for Monday afternoon and Tuesday in urban southeast Florida.

South Florida will see a soggy start to its week due to a potential tropical system that is forecast to form in the Gulf and then move across Florida, the National Weather Service said Sunday.
