There will be no tropical depression in the Gulf, at least this week. The National Hurricane Center on Thursday said an area of low pressure that had attracted the attention of weather watchers this week as it moved across the northern Gulf has moved inland in Louisiana as of Thursday evening.

A system was detected off the Atlantic Coast of Florida and is expected to move into the northern Gulf Coast and develop into a tropical depression.

Regardless of potential development, heavy rainfall is expected to produce localized flash flooding over portions of Florida throughout Wednesday as a result of the system. Heavy rainfall could also cause flash flooding for portions of the north-central Gulf Coast beginning late Wednesday and continuing through Friday.
