All Tropical Storm Warnings have been cancelled. Wind gusts of 25-35 MPH can be expected along the southwest and south central Louisiana coasts with wind gusts up to 25 MPH inland.

Rainfall totals of one half to 2 inches are expected with locally higher amounts of 2 to 6 inches possible within tropical rain bands. Coastal flooding with surge values of 1- 2 feet are peaking this afternoon and should begin to recede as tides flow out tonight. POTENTIAL IMPACTS ----------------- - FLOODING RAIN: Protect against dangerous rainfall flooding having possible significant impacts across south central Louisiana. Potential impacts include: - Moderate rainfall flooding may prompt several evacuations and rescues. - Rivers and tributaries may quickly become swollen with swifter currents and overspill their banks in a few places, especially in usually vulnerable spots. Small streams, creeks, canals, and ditches overflow. - Flood waters can enter some structures or weaken foundations. Several places may experience expanded areas of rapid inundation at underpasses, low-lying spots, and poor drainage areas. Some streets and parking lots take on moving water as storm drains and retention ponds overflow. Driving conditions become hazardous. Some road and bridge closures.
