The NHC has raised 96L's chance of development from
40% to 50% in the afternoon update. It may be interesting
to see what 96L does this afternoon and tonight; however,
I still think its best chance for developing into a depression
would be late tonight or tomorrow.
Regardless of development, the folks here in Texas will have
to watch out for brief tornadoes starting this evening in
Southeast Texas and spreading northwest through the rest
of the state tomorrow.
