Significant Tropical Disturbance (Update 10 July)

92L is becoming better defined south of Panama City. A tropical depression may form within 24 hours.

92L is likely to strengthen into a tropical storm while the center begins to pass south of the MS River Delta within 24-36 hours. Although not explicitly shown, 92L is forecast to become a hurricane shortly beyond 72 hours, and prior to the center reaching southwest Louisiana.

Several feet of storm surge will be possible near, and directly east of where the center makes landfall. Additionally, isolated rain totals in excess of 15-20 inches are likely to lead to significant inland flash flooding and river flooding.

Some adjustments regarding the exact placement of the worst impacts are likely over the next couple of days…
