This Afternoon and Tonight
The NWS does not expect hazardous weather through tonight.
Monday through Saturday
Tropical Storm Nicholas has developed in the Bay of Campeche, with
additional strengthening expected as it tracks northward over the
western Gulf of Mexico early this week. Given the current track of
Nicholas, the threat of heavy rainfall and possible flash flooding
may become more of a concern across parts of lower East Texas and
North Central Louisiana by mid to late week. Depending on the storm
track and intensity, this threat could expand farther north
to include more of our region up to the Interstate 20 corridor. Some weak and short-lived tornadoes may also be possible, as with any inland tropical system. Continue to monitor the latest forecast updates on Tropical Storm Nicholas as this system evolves.
SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT
The NWS will not need to activate emergency management personnel, amateur radio operators, and storm spotters tonight.
