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

Forecasters are warning of early signs of a potential tropical cyclone developing along the northeastern Gulf of Mexico. A low-pressure system that could bring storms to Florida before moving west has a medium chance of developing into a tropical cyclone over the next several days, according to the National Hurricane Center (NHC).

The National Hurricane Center is keeping a close eye on a cluster of thunderstorms off the coast of Florida or possible tropical development later this week. The chances of development of a tropical depression or tropical storm off Florida's east coast are increasing,
