Forecasters are tracking a tropical disturbance in the Caribbean Sea that could potentially pose a threat to Florida as the Labor Day weekend approaches. The National Hurricane Center has given the system a medium chance of tropical cyclone development over the next seven days. Although it is currently not a depression or storm, the system is expected to move northward into the eastern Gulf of Mexico, potentially impacting Florida by next week. Warm water and low wind shear in the Gulf of Mexico could support the development and strengthening of the system. However, the magnitude of any impacts on Florida is currently uncertain, and it's too early to determine if it will become a more robust tropical system. The National Hurricane Center advises residents in the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico, western Cuba, and Florida to monitor the progress of this system. Governor Ron DeSantis has directed the Florida Emergency Management team to prepare for a potential tropical system, and residents are urged to remain vigilant and prepare for possible impacts early next week.
