Discussion
Tropical Storm Laura is a growing threat for the coastline region of Texas and Louisiana with a possible landfall late Wednesday night. Tropical Storm Laura is very likely to intensify into hurricane status once out over the open warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico and it could become a “major” hurricane (i.e., category 3 or higher) before landfall - perhaps near the TX/LA border. Meanwhile, Tropical Storm Marco has weakened considerably as it drifts westward over central Gulf coastal region.
