ORLANDO, Fla. — The National Hurricane Center continued tracking what it’s calling Potential Tropical Cyclone Four in the Gulf of Mexico warning it could form into the season’s next tropical storm on Saturday while also keeping an eye on a new potential system in the Atlantic.
As of 2 p.m., the Gulf system was located about 125 miles south-southeast of the mouth of the Rio Grande River with maximum sustained winds of 35 mph heading northwest at 13 mph.
“The disturbance could still strengthen slightly and become a short-lived tropical storm before reaching the coast of northeastern Mexico,” NHC forecasters said in the public advisory. If it does, it would be named Tropical Storm Danielle.
