National Hurricane Center now tracking 4 waves in Atlantic, Caribbean, rain from Gulf system
The low-pressure system bringing rain and thunderstorms across Florida the last few days is expected to move out of the Gulf inland over southeastern Texas or western Louisiana going into the weekend, ending any chances for further development, according to the National Hurricane Center's July 25 update. "Today will be the last day of widespread heavy rainfall across the Gulf Coast," said National Weather Service meteorologist Mussie Kebede. "Troughing along the coast has offered a lifting mechanism for storm development/organization over the last few days, but should wind down as an upper ridge in the vicinity strengthens. "1-3 additional inches of rain are anticipated from the Florida panhandle to the central Texas coast by Sunday morning. Fortunately, the threat of flash flooding remains marginal due to the relatively low rain rates, resilient soils and efficient runoff methods," the forecaster said. Elsewhere, the NHC is now tracking four tropical waves moving westward across the Atlantic: one near the Lesser Antilles, one in the open Atlantic, a third off the coast of Africa, and a new one in the Caribbean. It's still hot out there. Heat index values ('real feel" temperatures) are expected to reach 100-107 in different areas around the state, but there are no heat advisories in effect today. However, the unusual heat and humidity the country has suffered through the last week will continue through early next week, Labede said, while building across the Southeast and Mid-South this weekend. ➤ Weather alerts via text: Sign up to get updates about current storms and weather events by location The next named storm of the 2025 Atlantic hurricane season will be Dexter.

The Atlantic hurricane season runs from June 1 through Nov. 30. Ninety-seven percent of tropical cyclone activity occurs during this time period, NOAA said. The Atlantic basin includes the northern Atlantic Ocean, Caribbean Sea and Gulf of America, as the Gulf of Mexico is now known in the U.S. per an order from President Trump. NOAA and the National Hurricane Center are now using Gulf of America on its maps and in its advisories. When is the peak of hurricane season? National Hurricane Center map: See what forecasters watching now Systems currently being monitored by the National Hurricane Center include: Why does NHC say 'tropical cyclone' on its maps instead of hurricane or tropical storm? Tropical cyclone is the generic term used by the National Weather Service, NOAA and the National Hurricane Center for any tropical system, even if it's in the tropical Atlantic basin. To be more precise, a tropical cyclone is a "rotating, organized system of clouds and thunderstorms that originates over tropical or subtropical waters and has closed, low-level circulation," NOAA said. Once maximum sustained winds reach 74 mph, what it is called is determined by where it originated: : for storms in the North Atlantic, central North Pacific, and eastern North Pacific. : for storms in the Northwest Pacific. : for storms in the South Pacific and Indian Ocean.
