Meteorologists also are keeping an eye on a system in the Pacific. If it crosses the Bay of Campeche and emerges in the Gulf of Mexico on Sunday, it has a 40 percent chance to develop into a tropical system in the following five days.
This system is not likely to affect our weather in North Carolina.
