The Florida Panhandle will see heavy rainfall from Invest 93L after it reaches the Gulf on Wednesday. The greatest threat to the area at the moment is flash flooding in low-lying, poor-drainage areas and urban locations. Invest 93L is currently expected to make landfall near Louisiana's southeastern coast Thursday morning.

A wet and rainy Florida could soon see even more precipitation in the coming days, according to the National Weather Service, which has warned the Gulf Coast will face a flood-generating system that could form into Tropical Storm Dexter.

The weather system moving across the Florida Panhandle was showing signs of becoming a tropical depression on Thursday while moving towards the northern Gulf Coast, officials said

A tropical storm may form this week, bringing risks of flash flooding and strong thunderstorms from Florida to Louisiana.
