Forecasters monitor Southeast coast for possible tropical development this week
Forecasters with the National Hurricane Center (NHC) are monitoring an area of disturbed weather off the southeastern coast of the U.S. for the potential for tropical development.
The FOX Forecast Center has been monitoring rain and thunderstorms moving across the Florida Peninsula, which are increasing the risk of flash flooding and bringing the threat of severe weather to the Sunshine State.
According to the NHC, the activity over Florida could also spawn areas of disturbed weather off the Southeast coast that could eventually take on tropical characteristics by the end of the week.

Severe weather brings stormy start to June for central US
A broad area from Central Texas through the Ozarks and Michigan's Upper Peninsula is at risk of severe weather Tuesday afternoon and evening, with the most widespread storms expected in the central and southern Plains.
A cold front will move east through the day, bringing damaging wind gusts and large hail as the primary threats. Storms may even spawn a few tornadoes, particularly over parts of the central Plains.
On Wednesday, the severe weather threat will shift to the Great Lakes, but more disturbances are expected to move through the central and southern U.S., setting the stage for daily rounds of severe weather later in the week.
