Description
A tropical disturbance over southern Texas has a 60% chance of becoming the Atlantic’s first named storm, Arthur, bringing life-threatening flooding to Texas, Louisiana, and Mississippi. With heavy rains of 4-8 inches—possibly up to 12 inches—coastal flooding and gusty winds are imminent. A tropical storm watch is in effect from Sargent, Texas, to Morgan City, Louisiana. Already, multiple water rescues have occurred, including a tragic fatality. Governor Greg Abbott has declared a state of disaster for 101 Texas counties. Officials urge everyone in the path to heed local warnings and take immediate safety precautions.
