As Hurricane Laura barrels down on Texas and Louisiana with life-threatening storm surge, damaging winds and flooding rains, Massachusetts meteorologists on Tuesday said it was still « much too soon to say » if the major hurricane will impact the Bay State.
As Hurricane Laura barrels down on Texas and Louisiana with life-threatening storm surge, damaging winds and flooding rains, Massachusetts meteorologists on Tuesday said it was still “much too soon to say” if the major hurricane will impact the Bay State. The National Hurricane Center is anticipating that weather along the coast in Texas and Louisiana will be going downhill by Wednesday afternoon. Hurricane and Storm Surge warnings are in effect for portions of the northwestern Gulf Coast — from San Luis Pass, Texas, to the mouth of the Mississippi River. The surge could be as high as 9 to 13 feet above ground level along the southwestern Louisiana and far southeastern Texas coasts, and could penetrate as far inland as 30 miles, according to the National Hurricane Center.
