Weather disturbance in Gulf expected to reach Texas coast in a day, forecasters say

A weather disturbance in the Gulf of Mexico is running out of time to develop before reaching land in about a day, forecasters with the National Hurricane Center said Thursday morning (Sept. 13). The system has a 50 percent chance of becoming a tropical depression within 48 hours.
Current forecasts have the low pressure system heading for the southern Texas coast and the Mexican coast near the U.S. border. It's not expected to bring any significant rain or wind to New Orleans, according the local office of the National Weather Service.
The system's only impacts for the metro area will be on the water, with increased wave and swell activity expected later this week, the National Weather Service said.
