is starting to take a turn towards the northeast. With this trajectory, this will keep continue to keep Erin between the US East Coat and Bermuda. Erin is still a category 2 as of 4pm CDT with maximum sustained winds of 110 mph. Erin is expected to make minor to moderate impacts along the coast of North Carolina with some evacuated. After Erin continues its journey back across the northern Atlantic, another storm has the possibility of forming. As of 4pm CDT, the NOAA NWS National Hurricane Center has this disturbance (which is located several hundred miles east of the Leeward Islands) at a 60% chance for development. However, this storm is not expected to impact the US coast. This however may impact the northern Leeward Islands by Friday before developing into what could be Fernand. Another thing is that this system could impact Bermuda Island.

Watching some storms over the New Orleans area as well as close to Raceland and Lockport with some scattered activity just to the south of Lafayette with temperatures in the mid to upper 90's in some cases across the Bayou Country. Along the coast however, we are sitting around 89 to 90.

☔️Radar Update☔️
Watching this tropical wave slowly spin on and off the coast of Plaquemines Parish and the coastal waters producing a lot of training showers and storms. This could lead to some high rainfall totals and could ultimately lead to some minor flooding across the eastern part of the Bayou Country today.

Temperature wise this will keep areas like Grand Isle, Venice, Port Sulphur, New Orleans and areas along the bay and coast line cooler then forecasted today. Temperatures should remain in the low to middle 80's for the southeastern part of the bayouc country, while the rest of us should see lower 90's for highs today.

⚠️BREAKING NEWS⚠️
Tropical Storm Erin has now formed off the west coast of Africa. It is forecast to become the first hurricane and possibly major hurricane of the Atlantic hurricane season as this storm moves across the Atlantic. As of now the exact path of if this storm goes into the Gulf or not is not exact as of now, but signs are pointing that this could make a major shift towards the north before it makes it to the Bahamas. We will have to keep an eye on it and I’ll continue to keep the latest forecast posted on this feature that has just formed.
