Discussion
All eyes continue to focus on the Gulf of Mexico as a tropical system will intensify over the next couple of days into named (Barry) tropical storm status. This system is likely to drift to the west over the next couple of days and it could very well have a direct impact on the Texas/Louisiana border region this weekend – perhaps even as a hurricane category status 1 or 2. Whether or not hurricane status is actually reached, there will be very heavy rainfall over much of the Gulf coastal region; especially, across southern Louisiana…stay tuned.
