Potential Threat to the Gulf Coast

There’s a tropical storm brewin’ in the Gulf, y’all!

The National Hurricane Center (NHC) says it’s got a 70% chance of becoming a named storm, and it could make landfall in the northeastern Gulf of Mexico.

We don’t know how strong it’ll be yet, but it could bring heavy rain, gusty winds, and coastal flooding. Coastal Alabama isn’t expected to be directly impacted, but it’s still a good idea to stay informed and prepared.

Here’s what you can do:

  • Keep an eye on the NHC’s website and social media pages.
  • Have a plan in place in case you need to evacuate.
  • Bring in any loose outdoor objects.
  • Fill up your gas tank and stock up on food and water.

We’ll keep you updated as more information becomes available.

In the meantime, let’s hope this tropical storm doesn’t cause too much trouble.
