A tropical storm watch stretches along the coast from Edisto Beach, S.C., to the South Santee River. The hurricane center said those elsewhere along the southeast coast of the United States should also keep an eye on Chantal. Chantal is expected to track slowly to the north and then northwest and move onshore in South Carolina by Sunday morning.

Tropical Storm Chantal formed in the Atlantic on Saturday morning and is projected to reach South Carolina's coast on Sunday, the National Hurricane Center said.

A weather system moving across Florida wasn’t even a tropical something but it has the potential to develop into a tropical depression as it moves across the Gulf later in the week

The system is threatening to bring heavy rain and the risk of flash floods to the northeastern and central Gulf Coast this week, and could become a tropical depression within days.

AccuWeather forecasters are keeping an eye on an area close to Florida which shows some potential for tropical development July 15-18.
