Wet Weather on the Gulf Coast



Severe thunderstorms have hit the Gulf Coast over the weekend. Parts of Louisiana were under water this morning and Texas has been hammered with downpours as well as the remains of Hurricane Patricia hit. These storms dropped over a foot of rain around Fort Worth, and 9 inches around Houston.


Louisiana has been hit hard as well with almost 9 inches of raining falling on its capital of Baton Rouge. These areas are still at risk for high winds and flooding as these storms work their way past. These winds can be expected to reach up to 50 mph.


Needless to say, it's not a good time to be checking out the Gulf Coast!

  1. We have a very unique weather in our area but after reading this article our area would be devastated if we received that much rain.
