GULF OF MEXICO - It looks like a brewing tropical storm could hit the Gulf of Mexico, possibly bringing heavy rains to the South and Southeastern regions before the month is out.

Though the trajectory is still not certain yet because of how far out the system is, AccuWeather reports that it looks to bring rain down from Louisiana to northern Florida and that the area near Central America is being monitored.

That area, which is seeing showers and thunderstorms, could bring on at least one, possibly more, tropical storms in coming days.

El Niño, which is warming up waters enough to support tropical storms, will also reportedly prevent those storms from developing into full-blown hurricanes.

"Because of the persistent wind shear, the chance of a major hurricane impacting the United States for the remainder of 2015 is very low," AccuWeather Hurricane Expert Dan Kottlowski, said in the report, adding that the broad area of disturbed weather on the Atlantic side will slowly move northward through next week. "Research from the Colorado State University shows that since 1878, no major hurricanes have impacted the U.S. in October and November during El Niño years."

AccuWeather reported that if the tropical system does take shape, the petroleum and coastal areas could see gusty winds, building seas, rough surf, minor coastal flooding, and severe thunderstorms.
