Posted: Tuesday, June 15, 2021. 8:46 am CST.

By Zoila Palma: The National Hurricane Center (NHC) is closely monitoring Tropical Storm Bill. As of this morning, Bill was located near latitude 38.5 North, longitude 67.2 West.

Little change in strength is expected today, followed by gradual weakening tonight and Wednesday morning when Bill will be moving over colder water.

The system is forecast to become a post-tropical low by tonight and dissipate on Wednesday.

NHC is also monitoring an area of disorganized showers and thunderstorms located over the Bay of Campeche and southern Mexico.

This system is expected to move little during the next day or two, and any development should be slow to occur during that time period.

NHC notes that a tropical depression is likely to form late in the week when the low moves across the central or northwestern Gulf of Mexico.

Regardless of development, heavy rainfall will continue over portions of Central America and southern Mexico during the next several days.

This disturbance has a 70% chance of formation through 5 days.
