Recent satellite estimates showed Koppu's maximum rainfall rate was likely 20 inches of rain per 24 hours.

pretty insane... but, closer to home:

Development of 92L in Gulf of Mexico possible
An area of showers and thunderstorms (Invest 92L) extending from the northwestern Caribbean Sea through the southern Yucatan Peninsula at 8 am EDT Saturday was associated with an area of low pressure located over central Belize. This low will move slowly west-northwest at about 5 mph, and may emerge over the southern Gulf of Mexico's Bay of Campeche on Sunday or Monday. The disturbance's proximity to land, and competition from a separate tropical disturbance in the Eastern Pacific that NHC is giving 5-day development odds of 80% to, will keep the odds of 92L's development low. In their 8 am EDT Saturday Tropical Weather Outlook, NHC gave 92L 2-day and 5-day odds of development of 10% and 20%, respectively. Moisture from 92L is likely to spread northwards across Texas late in the week, bringing heavy rains.
