Just when warmer 850 mb temperatures were creeping back across our area, we may get spared from the real heat. A tropical disturbance in the Gulf is forecast to drift north over the next 48 hours. In turn, we'll likely see increasing chances for showers and storms on Wednesday, along with cooler temperatures thanks to the cloud cover.

This upper level disturbance could linger through the middle of the week, keeping clouds and showers and storms in our forecast.
