Tropical Storm Marco should continue to weaken over the central Gulf Coast region, with mostly minor impacts due to rain, wind, and storm surge. Meanwhile, Tropical Storm Laura will be entering the Gulf of Mexico on Tuesday. Following a period of possible rapid intensification, Laura is forecast to reach the Texas or Louisiana coast as a hurricane late Wednesday or early Thursday. Late in the week, Laura’s remnant circulation should move inland across the mid-South and begin to interact with an approaching cold front. As a result, locally heavy rainfall (and potential flooding) can be expected from the central Gulf Coast region into the Mississippi Delta and portions of the Ohio and Tennessee Valleys. In contrast, hot, mostly dry weather will persist through week’s end in many areas from the Pacific Coast to the Plains.
