We’re all watching Tropical Storm Laura as it makes its way across Cuba, bringing flooding rains and dangerous winds to the island, as well as Jamaica and the Cayman Islands. At 5 am Monday, Laura was located near 20.8 North, 78.9 West, about 255 miles east-southeast of Isla de Pinos (Isle of Youth), Cuba. Maximum sustained winds were 65 miles per hour, and Laura was moving west-northwest at 21 miles per hour. Heavy rains from Laura have already caused life-threatening flooding on Hispaniola. Laura is forecast to strengthen in the Gulf and make landfall along the northern U.S. Gulf Coast as a hurricane on Wednesday night.
Tropical Storm Marco is forecast to make landfall along the northern U.S. Gulf Coast on Monday. At 5 am, Marco was located near 27.6 North, 88.2 West, about 115 miles south-southeast of the mouth of the Mississippi River. Maximum sustained winds were down to 60 miles per hour after Marco briefly reached hurricane strength on Sunday. Marco was moving northwest at 10 miles per hour. Since Marco is not forecast to be a hurricane when it reaches the northern Gulf Coast, hurricane warnings have been replaced with tropical storm warnings — but this is still a dangerous storm. Unfortunately, Louisiana and eastern Texas will have to deal with the effects of Marco on Monday into Tuesday, and then Laura on Wednesday into Thursday.
