According to National Hurricane Center records, only two named tropical systems occurred in April - Ana in 2003 and Arlene in 2017.
There have been a few very small and poorly documented tropical depressions during the month of April, but most certainly, organized tropical systems are exceedingly rare and none have occurred in the Gulf of Mexico.
A complex pattern this week involves an unusual orientation of the jet stream which is becoming pinched near the Texas coast. This will likely create what is called a "cutoff low". Lows like this aren’t uncommon, but the location of this one is and, although its spin is occurring at around 20k feet above the ground, it could help to create a low at the surface.RGiven the water temperatures in the low 70s, this would not likely be a purely tropical low but still could be feisty with gusty winds and heavy rain from Louisiana to Florida.
The decision would have to be made whether the area of low pressure is a "warm core", meaning a tropical system that feeds off of warm water, or a "cold core" system, more like the lows that bring cold fronts. Hybrid storms can and do happen, but even those are nearly unknown in recent memory in the Gulf of Mexico.
Whatever forms, and it could stay a non-tropical system, it would likely have minimal effects on Texas. The Atlantic hurricane season officially begins on June 1 and ends on November 30.
