 A tropical wave emerged off the western coast of Africa on June 12 , and eventually developed into Tropical Depression One in the southeastern Gulf of Mexico . Operationally , the National Hurricane Center designated this system as Tropical Depression Two , which led to confusion because of Subtropical Storm One in April , and then another Tropical Depression Two in July . Outflow from Hurricane Celia in the Pacific Ocean and a trough in the Gulf of Mexico generated wind shear on the depression , which prevented it from intensifying into a tropical storm . The depression curved north @-@ northeastward and eventually made landfall in near Tampa , Florida on June 26 around 1500 UTC . As it was moving ashore , the National Hurricane Center noted that the depression was too poorly organized to locate the center of circulation , and discontinued advisories on the system .
