Alex could become a hurricane by Tuesday morning.

On its current forecast track Alex should make landfall Thursday, early in the day if northeast Mexico or later if southern Texas.

Heavy rain and flooding are possible over the western Yucatan Peninsula, southern Mexico and northern Guatemala through Tuesday.

Additional rainfall amounts of 3 to 6 inches are possible in the lower elevations with up to 10 inches possible in the mountains.

A surge in tropical moisture that has moved in concert with Alex has already reached the Gulf coast of the U.S. Heavy shower and thunderstorm activity should continue along the coast today with more concentrated rainfall from Alex reaching the western Gulf coast Tuesday.

Increasing south-to-southeast winds along the central and western Gulf coast could cause some minor coastal flooding at high tide later today through Tuesday.
