Two tropical storm systems, forming in the southern Gulf of Mexico and in the Atlantic Ocean, could impact much of the southern United States this week to kick off what is forecast to be a "very active" hurricane season.

2 tropical storm systems take aim at Texas, Southeast

If you're wondering if Beryl will impact Southeast states, the threat stays mostly west of the Mississippi River, but southerly flow enhances moisture and dewpoints across the area, raising heat index values and contributing to a few "tropical-esq" thunderstorms. The heat mixed with some ambient moisture creates a setup to see afternoon storms and showers around for much of our Monday. Don't be too surprised if scattered afternoon showers become a bit of a trend as we head into the middle of the week.
