Named Storm Hermine

Tropical Storm Hermine formed out of a tropical low pressure area off the southeastern coast of Mexico over the weekend. This tropical storm will move into the Texas/Mexico border area over the next 24 hours with significant thunderstorm activity, some coastal and lowlands flooding in southeastern Texas, and substantial rains. Maximum sustained winds in this storm are nearing 50 MPH at this hour but are not forecast to intensify to hurricane strength. Persons with interests in southeastern Texas should monitor travel weather in the vicinity.

This will be our only Tropical Storm Hermine posting.

We are also watching for the reformation of named storm Gaston, nearing the Leeward Islands. Once this storm reaches Tropical Storm intensity once again, we will continue with updates in the Named Storm Gaston area.
