development of a tropical disturbance in the Bay of Campeche could
increase winds to over 20 knots and wave heights up to 8-10 feet.
This could lead to Small Craft Advisory issuance. The National
Hurricane Center has given this disturbance a medium 50% chance of
tropical cyclone development in the next 7 days. Rain chances are
