UPDATE 2 p.m: Over Florida. Expect More Rain As System From East Coast To Gulf Of Mexico.

BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2025 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — There’s a new system that may be in the early stages of development just east of the Florida coast. Whether it develops into a storm or not as it heads west, forecasters say it’s likely to bring rain — again — to a much of the state. The Wednesday “tropical discussion update” from the National Hurricane Center explains:
Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
200 PM EDT Wed Jul 23 2025
For the North Atlantic…Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of America:
North-Central Gulf: A trough of low pressure near northern Florida is producing a few showers and thunderstorms. Over the next day or two, this system is forecast to move west-southwestward into the north-central portion of the Gulf where some slow development is possible. By this weekend, the system is likely to move inland, ending its chances for development. Regardless of tropical cyclone formation, locally heavy rainfall is possible for portions of Florida over the next day or so, and for the northern Gulf coast through this weekend.
Formation chance through 48 hours…low…10 percent.
Formation chance through 7 days…low…10 percent.
