Tropical Depression 19

A disturbance in the Atlantic off the coast of Florida has formed into Tropical Depression 19.  The National Hurricane Center has issued Tropical Storm Watches for the southeastern tip of Florida.  The real impact however is expected to occur days later when the storm is reaches Tropical Storm strength as it approaches the Mississippi/Louisiana border.

Storms tracks may change so stay tuned

The National Hurricane Center cautions that TD 19's storm track beyond 48 hours is "highly uncertain" and could deviate to the northeast after it crosses the Florida peninsula.
