A Tropical Storm formed in the Gulf of Mexico Monday and is headed to the eastern coast of Mexico, according to the Tampa Bay Times.

Tropical Storm Dolly does not pose a threat to Florida, but it is expected to make landfall by Wednesday in Mexico.

It began as a tropical depression and strengthened to a tropical storm by 5 a.m. Tuesday, about 200 miles east of Tampico in Mexico, the TBT reported.

The expected forecast is an easterly direction, south of Texas.

While currently heading northwest at 15 mph, and sustained winds of 45 mph, Dolly is expected to strengthen before making landfall, according to the National Hurricane Center, TBT reported.

But Dolly is unlikely to strengthen into a hurricane, the Weather Channel reported.

The government of Mexico issued a tropical storm warning for the Gulf Coast, including from Cabo Rojo, Veracruz north to Barra El Mezquital, Tamaulipas, the WC reported.

In total, the storm is expected to bring between five and 10 inches of rain to the affected areas, according to The Associated Press.

Texas will feel some effects, but not much, from the storm. There will be some rain in the Lower Rio Grande Valley, in the far south of Texas, and rip currents will threaten the Texas coast all week.

The biggest threat to the affected regions of Mexico will be rain. Winds blowing up the eastern slopes of the Sierra Madre Oriental will enhance rainfall, because the upward wind will cause moist air to rise and form the clouds and rain.

The National Weather Service in Key West also added a side note to the news of the storm.

Tuesday is the 79th anniversary of the most powerful storm to make landfall in the U.S., the 1935 Labor Day Hurricane, which reached 185 mph winds, according to the Miami New Times.
