Jeff Master's current comment injects a little cautionary advice regarding this system...he noted that in the next 72-96 hours an cold front will invade the NW GOM which could shunt the moisture of what ever forms off toward the NE. It is getting far enough along in the season for that type of scenario to occur, so there is, perhaps, a need for slightly elevated vigilance with this system for all along the Gulf coast.

Edit: The above views are shared in other reliable discussions as well and are refelectd in the most recent reliable model runs that suggest a shunting of the tropical moisture northeastward in 4-6 days.
