A wet and rainy Florida could soon see even more precipitation in the coming days, according to the National Weather Service, which has warned the Gulf Coast will face a flood-generating system that could form into Tropical Storm Dexter.

There's a chance the storm could form within the next 48 hours. Even if it doesn't, Florida is expecting heavy rain.

Hurricane center forecasters said the system, designated as Invest 93L, is forecast to continue moving westward and could emerge or redevelop.

While the National Hurricane Center's map is lit up with a tropical disturbance, Saturday's forecast is much more about the heat index.

The storm remains disorganized on Wednesday but still has time to strengthen over the Gulf before making landfall on Thursday.

Invest 93L may have fizzled out, but the history of Texas storms suggests August could be the 'real' start of the season.

Forecasts suggested widespread rainfall totals between 2 and 4 inches, with isolated areas seeing as much as 7 inches by Tuesday evening. Authorities emphasized the risk posed by flooding, including rapidly rising waters in streams and dangerous road conditions in both cities and rural areas.

"If this system moves far enough offshore, environmental conditions over the Gulf appear generally favorable for additional development, and a tropical depression could still form over the next couple of days before the system moves fully inland by the end of the week,
