According to Dr. Rob Carver at the Weather Underground, the National Hurricane Center is currently watching two different areas for tropical storm activity. Invest 95L is about 125 miles west-southwest of the mouth of the Mississippi and it doesn't have much thunderstorm activity associated with it. The NHC give it only a 10 percent chance of becoming a tropical cyclone before landfall. On the other hand, Invest 96L has a 30 percent chance of developing into a tropical storm in the western Caribbean sea. "Computer models have 96L going through the Yucatan Channel then turning left and making landfall somewhere near the Rio Grande," says Carver.
