the drier calmer side but with that being said again can't let our guard down and we're talking about a tropical storm potential hurricane in the Gulf we watch this very carefully OKAY model data is lining up just the same with that easterly Trek from the National Hurricane Center it is pointing more to a Texas Louisiana potentially Louisiana landfall by Wednesday so impacts from a potential tropical Cyclone 6 areawide rain expected Tuesday evening and then throughout the day on Wednesday Wednesday we have our highest packs but we still need to watch this very carefully for tomorrow elevated surf so Coastal erosion strong winds again that tide expected around 3 to 5 feet we will be watching that for all of our coastal areas you need to check the forecast at least once to twice a day changes to track very possible over the next couple of days flood risk for your Monday non-existent today's really a nice day maybe a few showers along the gulf but that should along the coast from the Gulf but that would really be about it let's dive into Tuesday though notice on a scale of 1 to four we're under a slight risk that yellow is a level two so Chambers Galvis and portions of Southeastern Harris County Brazoria Matagorda County all under that slight risk to see high water spots Wednesday this does start to shift a little further east including Liberty County uh Chambers Galveston and Eastern portions there of Brazoria but the best flood threat do you see the red that's a level three out of four in Louisiana and that is on Wednesday I want to show you a broad view so the big picture here with Francine especially Wednesday so this is a snapshot of the broad view for Wednesday is a big part of Louisiana and then notice all of the yellow here as well that's also indicating the risk of high water spots now this is another takeaway about Francine Francine after landfall is going to move we're not expecting that to stall but even so it's it's coming right in time with the peak of hurricane season which is tomorrow September the 10th so has to be expected Things Are ramping up let me have a closer in view of our future track throughout the dayto day we keep it really mostly quiet you know maybe a 20% chance for a few Coastal showers that would be about it overnight it's about the same not out of the question we could have an isolated shower Tuesday into your midday but overall we keep it pretty quiet even for a big part of the day tomorrow look at all this convection though offshore so this is 10: a.m. tomorrow morning then as we get into let's say Midday Three or afternoon okay an iolated shower to an isolated thunderstorm very possible but a lot of this Still Remains offshore getting into Wednesday this this is the day with the highest impacts now notice overnight hours into Wednesday we're already starting to track these tropical showers and thunderstorms could produce some very heavy rain locally and this is what could lead to these high water spots look at some of these deeper colors here popping up on our future track that continues now again how close Francine gets to the coastline that will also depend on who sees the the rain I mean in big areas north of town may not get that much rain Tuesday or Wednesday but we have to keep our guard up I mean we're talking a tropical storm potentially a hurricane Wednesday 8:30 in the morning a lot of this again wants to stay offshore and hug East but things could change so keep your guard up make sure you're staying close to the forecast here over the next couple days we do have weather impact alert days for Tuesday and Wednesday that's the highest chance to see either high water spots heavy down course strong winds elevated Surf and then it's quickly out of here by Thursday rain chances really drop and we start to Trend drier for the upcoming weekend more with potential tropical Cyclone 6 or what will become France scen on khou.com good morning I'm meteorologist cheetah craft tracking potential tropical Cyclone 6 I am expecting this to become tropical storm Francine today and then hurricane Francine either late tomorrow or Wednesday morning latest track from the national Hurricane Center notice this is the 7: a.m. advisory the track is basically the same with intensity the intensity really did not change overnight but the track did shift East that's the change that happened overnight so no longer is Eastern Harris County Galveston and most of Chambers County in the cone of uncertainty it did shift East so just the extreme Eastern portion there of Chambers and then pretty much all right into the Texas Louisiana border so even though the track did shift East it is not time to let your guard down okay this is a very fluid forecast things could change over the next 24 to 48 hours so I want you to be mindful that it is time to continue to monitor the forecast we're going to update you and let you know hey if there are any changes with track or intensity but you need to at least check the weather update once twice a day for the latest information now I'm going to show you what our future track is showing midday tomorrow notice how showers and even a few thunderstorms along the Texas Coastline here here locally will be possible this is all outermost tropical bands from what will become Francine watch how Francine really starts to gain intensity as we get into Wednesday in fact the greatest impacts across Southeast Texas here locally will be on Wednesday I think the heaviest downpours strongest winds uh elevated surf think tied around 3 to 5 feet even along Galveston Bay and again watch how the outermost bands continue to hug the Texas Coastline even though the center of circulation is still offshore now even if this holds steady and stays the same as Francine nears the Louisiana Coastline we're still going to be looking at wraparound moisture and some elevated Surf and some strong winds from Francine now we will be on the drier calmer side but with that being said again can't let our guard down and we're talking about a tropical storm potential hurricane in the Gulf we watched this very carefully OKAY model data is lining up just the same with that easterly Tre from the National Hurricane Center it is pointing more to a Texas Louisiana potentially Louisiana landfall by Wednesday so impacts from Pro potential

gulf but that should along the coast from the Gulf but that would really be about it let's dive into Tuesday though notice on a scale of one to four we're under a slight risk that yellow is a level two so Chambers Galveston portions of Southeastern Harris County Brazoria magor water spots Wednesday this does start to shift a little further east including Liberty County at Chambers Galveston and Eastern portions there of Brazoria but the best flood threat do you see the red that's a level three out of four in Louisiana and that is on Wednesday I want to show you a broad view so the big picture here with Francine especially Wednesday so this is a snapshot of the Broadview for Wednesday is a big part of Louisiana and then notice all of the yellow here as well that's also indicating

Midday Three or afternoon okay an isolated shower to an isolated thunderstorm very possible but a lot of this Still Remains offshore getting into Wednesday this this is the day with the highest impacts now notice overnight hours into Wednesday we're already starting to track these tropical showers and thunderstorms could produce some very rain locally and this is what could lead to these high water spots look at some of these deeper colors here popping up on our future track that continues now again how close Francine gets to the coastline that will also depend on who sees the rain I mean in big areas north of town may not get that much rain Tuesday or Wednesday but we have to keep our guard up I mean we're talking a tropical storm potentially a hurricane Wednesday 8:30 in the morning a lot of this again wants to stay offshore and hug East but things could change so keep your guard up make sure you're staying close to the forecast here over the next couple days we do have weather impact alert days for Tuesday and Wednesday that's the highest chance to see either high water spots heavy downpour strong winds elevated Surf and then it's quickly out of here by Thursday rain chances really drop and we start to Trend drier for the upcoming weekend more with potential tropical Cyclone 6 or what will become Francine on khou.com good morning I'm meting meteorologist cheetah craft tracking potential tropical Cyclone 6 I am expecting this to become tropical storm Francine today and then hurricane Francine either late tomorrow or Wednesday morning latest track from the National Hurricane Center notice this is the 7: a.m. advisory the track is basically the same with intensity the intensity really did not change overnight but the track did shift East that's the change that happened overnight so no longer is Eastern Harris County Galveston and most of County in the cone of uncertainty it did shift East so just the extreme Eastern portion there of Chambers and then pretty much all right into the Texas Louisiana border so even though the track did shift East it is not time to let your guard down okay this is a very fluid forecast things could change over the next 24 to 48 hours so I want you to be mindful that it is time to continue to monitor the forecast we're going to update you and let you know hey if there are any changes with track or intensity but you need to at least check the weather update once twice a day for the latest information now I'm then to show you what our future track is showing midday tomorrow notice how showers and even a few thunderstorms along the Texas Coastline here here locally will be possible this is all outer most tropical bands from what will become Francine watch how Francine really starts to gain intensity as we get into Wednesday in fact the greatest impacts across Southeast Texas here locally will be on Wednesday I think the heaviest downpours strongest winds uh elevated surf think tied around three to five and again watch how the outermost bands continue to hug the Texas Coastline even though the center of circulation is still offshore now even if this holds steady and stays the same as Francine near as the Louisiana Coastline we're still going to be looking at wraparound moisture and some elevated Surf and some strong winds from Francine now we will be on the drier calmer side but with that being said again can't let our guard down and we're talking about a tropical storm potential hurricane in the Gulf we watch this very carefully OKAY model data is lining up just the same with that easterly Trek from the National Hurricane Center it is pointing more to a Texas Louisiana potentially Louisiana landfall by Wednesday so impacts from potential tropical Cyclone 6 areawide rain expected Tuesday evening and then throughout the day on Wednesday Wednesday we have our highest impacts but we still need to watch this very carefully for tomorrow elevated surf so Coastal erosion strong winds again that tide expected around 3 to 5T we will be watching that for all of our coastal areas you need to check the forecast at least once to twice a day changes to track very possible over the next couple of days flood risk for your Monday non-existent today's really a nice day maybe a few showers along the gulf but that should along the coast from the Gulf but that would really be about it let's dive into Tuesday though notice on a scale of 1 to four were under slight risk that yellow is a level two so Chambers Galviston portions of Southeastern Harris County boria madag gorta County all under that slight risk to see high water spots Wednesday this does start to shift a little further east including Liberty County at Chambers Galveston and Eastern portions there of Brazoria but the best flood threat do you see the red that's a level three out of four in Louisiana and that is on Wednesday I want to show you a broad view so the big picture here with Francine especially Wednesday so this is a snapshot of the Broadview for Wednesday is a big part of Louisiana and then notice all of the yellow here as well that's also indicating the risk of high water spots now this is another takeaway about Francine Francine after landfall is going to move we're not expecting that to stall but even so it's it's coming right in time with the peak of hurricane season which is tomorrow September the 10th so has to be expected things are ramping up let me have a closer in view of our future track throughout the dayto day we keep it really mostly quiet you know maybe a 20% chance for a few Coastal showers that would be about it overnight it's about the same not out of the question we could have an isolated shower Tuesday into your midday but overall we keep it pretty quiet even for a big part of the day tomorrow look at all this convection though offshore so this is 10:00 a.m. tomorrow morning then as we get into let's say midday through your afternoon okay an isolated shower to an isolated thunderstorm very possible but a lot of this Still Remains offshore getting into Wednesday this this is the day with the highest impacts now notice overnight hours into Wednesday we're already starting to track these tropical showers and thunderstorms could produce some very heavy rain locally and this is what could lead to these high water spots look at some of these deeper colors here popping up on our future track that continues now again how close Francine gets to the coastline that will also depend on who sees the rain I mean in big areas north of Town may not get that much rain Tuesday or Wednesday but we have to keep our guard up I mean we're talking a tropical storm potentially a hurricane Wednesday 8:30 in the morning a lot of this again wants to stay offshore and hug East but things could change so keep your guard up make sure you're staying close to the forecast here over the next couple days we do have weather impact alert days for Tuesday and Wednesday that's the highest chance to see either high water spots heavy downpour strong winds elevated Surf and then it's quickly out of here by Thursday rain chances really drop and we start to

being said again can't let our guard down and we're talking about a tropical storm potential hurricane in the Gulf we watch this very carefully OKAY model data is lining up just the same with that easterly Trek from the National Hurricane Center it is pointing more to a Texas Louis iiana potentially Louisiana landfall by Wednesday so impacts from potential tropical Cyclone 6 areawide rain expected Tuesday evening and then throughout the day on Wednesday Wednesday we have our highest impacts but we still need to watch this very carefully for tomorrow elevated surf so Coastal erosion

want to show you a broad view so the big picture here with Francine especially Wednesday so this is a snapshot of the broad view for Wednesday is a big part of Louisiana and then notice all of the yellow here as well that's also indicating the risk of high water spots now this is another takeaway about Francine Francine after landfall is going to move we're not expecting that to stall but even so it's it's coming right in time with the peak of hurricane season which is tomorrow September the 10th so has to be expected things are ramping up let me have a closer in view of our future track throughout the dayto day we keep it really mostly quiet you know maybe a 20% chance for a few Coastal showers that would be about it overnight it's about the same not out of the question we could have an isolated shower Tuesday into your midday but overall we keep it pretty quiet even for a big part of the day tomorrow look at all this convection though off off shore so this is 10:00 a.m. tomorrow morning then as we get into let's say Midday Three or afternoon okay an isolated shower to an isolated thunderstorm very possible but a lot of this Still Remains offshore getting into Wednesday this this is the day with the highest impacts now notice overnight hours into Wednesday we're already starting to track these tropical showers and thunderstorms could produce some very heavy rain locally and this is what could lead to these high water spots look at some of these deeper colors here popping up on our fth of Town may not get that much rain Tuesday or Wednesday but we have to keep our guard up I mean we're talking a tropical storm potentially a hurricane Wednesday 8:30 in the morning a lot of this again wants to stay offshore and hug East but things could change so keep your guard up make sure you're staying close to the forecast here over the next couple days we do have weather impact alert days for Tuesday and Wednesday that's the highest chance to see either high water spots heavy downpour strong winds elevated Surf and then it's quickly out of here by Thursday rain chances really drop and we start to Trend drier for the upcoming weekend more with potential tropical cyclon 6 or what will become Fran scine on khou.com good morning I'm meteorologist cheetah craft tracking potential tropical Cyclone 6 I am expecting this to become tropical storm Francine today and then hurricane Francine either late tomorrow or Wednesday morning latest track from the National Hurricane Center notice this is the 7: a.m. advisory again it the track is basically the same with intensity the intensity really did not change overnight but the track did shift East that's the change that happened overnight so no longer is Eastern Harris County Galveston and most of Chambers County in the cone of uncertainty it did shift East so just the extreme Eastern portion there of Chambers and then pretty much all right into the Texas Louisiana border so even though the track did shift East it is not time to let your guard down okay this is a very fluid forecast things could change over the next 24 to 48 hours so I want you to be mindful that it is time to continue to monitor the forecast we're going to update you and let you know hey if there are any changes with track or intensity but you need to at least check the weather update once twice a day for the latest information now and then I show you what our future track is showing midday tomorrow notice how showers and even a few thunderstorms along the Texas Coastline here here locally will be possible this is all outermost tropical bands from what will become Francine watch how Francine really starts to gain intensity as we get into Wednesday in fact the greatest impacts across Southeast Texas here locally will be on Wednesday I think the heaviest downpours strongest winds uh elevated surf think tied around 3 to 5 feet even along Galveston Bay and again watch how the outermost bands continue to hug the Texas Coastline even though the center of circulation is still offshore now even if this this holds steady and stays the same as Francine near as the Louisiana Coastline we're still going to be looking at wraparound moisture and some elevated Surf and some strong winds from Francine now we will be on the drier calmer side but with that being said again can't let our guard down and we're talking about a tropical storm potential hurricane in the Gulf we watch this very carefully OKAY model data is lining up just the same with that easterly Trek from the National Hurricane Center it is pointing more to a Texas Louis Iana potentially Louisiana landfall by Wednesday so impacts from potential tropical Cyclone 6 areawide rain expected Tuesday evening and then throughout the day on Wednesday Wednesday we have our highest impacts but we still need to watch this very carefully for tomorrow elevated surf so Coastal erosion strong winds again that tide expected around 3 to 5 feet we will be watching that for all of our coastal areas you need to check the forecast at least once to twice a day changes to track very possible over the next couple of days flood risk for your Monday a nice day maybe a few showers along the gulf but that should along the coast from the Gulf but that would really be about it let's dive into Tuesday though notice on a scale of 1 to four we're under slight risk that yellow is a level two so Chambers Galveston portions of Southeastern Harris County Brazoria madag gorta County all under that slight risk to see high water spots Wednesday this does start to shift a little further east including Liberty County at Chambers Galveston and Eastern portions there of Brazoria but the best flood threat do you see the red that's a level three out of four in Louisiana and that is on Wednesday I want to show you a broad view so the big picture here with Francine especially Wednesday so this is a snapshot of the Broadview for Wednesday is a big part of Louisiana and then notice all of the yellow here as well that's also indicating the risk of high water spots now this is another takeaway about Francine Francine after landfall is going to move we're

could produce some very heavy rain locally and this is what could lead to these high water spots look at some of these deeper colors here popping up on our future track that continues now again how close Francine gets to the coastline that will also depend on who sees the rain I mean in big areas north of town may not get that much rain Tuesday or Wednesday but we have to keep our guard up I mean we're talking a tropical storm potentially a hurricane Wednesday 8:30 in the morning a lot of this again wants to stay offshore and hug East but things could change so keep your guard up make

e e e e e e e e e e really drop and we start to Trend drier for the upcoming weekend more I'm K1 meteorologist Kim cter brand new update from the National Hurricane Center we have tropical storm Fran scene here the current stats still holding at 50 mph winds pressure has dropped ever so slightly and it's moving at a North Northwest jog 5 miles an hour here's the convective field it's pretty expansive so even though the track has shifted further east we could still see some wraparound rain impacting Houston but overall this is a good SC scenario for Texans right now the National Hurricane Center has tropical storm Fran scen gaining some momentum by this evening than becoming a category 1 Hurricane by tomorrow evening it's expected to maintain that strength as it makes a landfall somewhere near Lake Charles this could Encompass Lafayette as well and notice the cone of uncertainty stretches as far east as New Orleans now this could shift which is why you're going to want to watch the forecast throughout the day as we get more updates once FR scene starts to pick up more intensity notice the time frame to watch is going to be late Tuesday night into early Wednesday for houstonians wraparound rain I think is going to be the biggest issue on Tuesday scattered storms throughout the day we could see some lingering moisture into Wednesday morning for the coast we're going to see elevated Tides a storm surge threat Coastal erosion coastal flooding is a possibility don't let your guard down just make sure you follow the forecast as we track Francine and see any new developments or any shifts in that forecast tropical storm watches for Brownsville and along Coastal Waters this includes the coastal Waters of our Coastline Chambers galvaston Brazoria and Matagorda notice further east the threat becomes a little bit more elevated so hurricane watches not just for the coast of Louisiana but far inland communities are seeing the threat of those hurricane force wind speeds and tropical storm wind Fields into nor Orleans too the highest likelihood again of seeing the wind damage is going to be where that Storm Center tracks so right now Lake Charles Lafayette New Orleans under the gun for that but even our Coastal Counties have about a 50 to 60% chance to see some wind impact so that could mean we're not out of the woods when it comes to the potential of power outage threats or tropical storm Force impacts but all in all we are on the clean side of the storm remember the dirty side where we see the worst impacts is the right side check out these outer rainbands all throughout Tuesday even into the evening hour so that's a snapshot at 11:30 p.m. you'll notice the center now well defined and it'll race towards Louisiana by Wednesday morning maybe we see some residual rainbands filtering into Southeast Texas but a lot of the moisture the energy the Windfield all the threats right now shifted towards the east 1:00 in the afternoon looks like the eye moves Inland and then it'll continue to race towards Kentucky by um late Wednesday into Thursday Thursday forecast so this is the rain all throughout the week you'll notice the totals have have dropped down because now the National Hurricane Center has a little better understanding as to where Francine is tracking now that the tropical storm has developed rainfall totals for us will be most significant along the coastline uh widespread 1 to 2 inches isolated spots I think could see more than this but the general bottom line is that Inland impacts will be mitigated with Francine's track shifting further and further towards the east no flood threat today today notice tomorrow were highlighted under a level two threat slight risk for flooding this includes a portion of Harris County all of Chambers Galveston Brazoria and Matagorda counties this continues into Wednesday but it shifts a little bit further east which is reflecting what Francine will be doing at this point uh pulk County Liberty County still a portion of Harris Chambers Galveston as well as Brazoria so tropical storm fr scene has this under weather impact alert days Tuesday and Wednesday the primary threat is going to be some heavy rain some scattered storms some downpours and threats along the coastline I need you to keep up with the forecast because this is a developing system it's still very fluid and we're going to see some shifts to the track some shifts to the intensity so keep up with us I'm k21 meteorologist Kim Castro brand new update from the National Hurricane Center we have half tropical

that strength as it makes a landfall somewhere near Lake Charles this could Encompass Lafayette as well and notice the cone of uncertainty stretches as far east as New Orleans now this could shift which is why you're going to want to watch the forecast throughout the day as we get more updates when Francine starts to pick up more intensity notice the time frame to watch is going to be late Tuesday night into early Wednesday for houstonians wraparound rain I think is going to be the biggest issue on Tuesday scattered storms throughout the day we could see some lingering moisture into Wednesday morning for the coast we're going to see elevated Tides a storm surge threat Coastal erosion coastal flooding is a possibility don't let your guard down just make sure you follow the forecast as we track Francine and see any new developments or any shifts in that forecast tropical storm watches for Brownsville and along Coastal Waters this includes the coastal Waters of our Coastline Chambers Galveston Brazoria and madag gorta notice further east the threat becomes a little bit more elevated so hurricane watches not just for the coast of Louisiana but far inland communities are seeing the threat of those hurricane force wind speeds and tropical storm windfields into New Orleans too the highest likelihood again of seeing the wind damage is going to be where that Storm Center tracks so right now Lake Charles Lafayette New Orleans under the gun for that but even our Coastal Counties have about a 50 to 60% chance to see some wind impact so that could mean we're not out of the woods when it comes to the potential of power outage threats or tropical storm Force impacts but all in all we are on the clean side of the storm remember the dirty side where we see the worst impacts is the right side check out these outer rainbands all throughout Tuesday even into the evening hour so that's a snapshot at 11:30 p.m. you'll notice the now well defined and it'll race towards Louisiana by Wednesday morning maybe we see some residual rainbands filtering into Southeast Texas but a lot of the moisture the energy the Windfield all the threats right now shifted towards the east 1:00 in the afternoon looks like the eye moves Inland and then it'll continue to race towards Kentucky by um late Wednesday into Thursday Thursday forecast so this is the rain all throughout the week you'll notice the totals have dropped down because now the National Hurricane Center has a little better understanding as to where Francine is tracking now that the tropical storm has developed rainfall totals for us will be most significant along the coastline uh widespread 1 to 2 in isolated spots I think could see more than this but the general bottom line is that Inland impacts will be mitigated with Francine's track shifting further and further towards the east no flood threat today notice tomorrow we're highlighted under a level two threat slight risk for flooding this includes a portion of Harris County all of Chambers Galveston Brazoria and Matagorda counties this continues into Wednesday but it shifts a little bit further east which is reflecting what Francine will be doing at this point uh pulk County Liberty County still a portion of Harris Chambers Galveston as well as Brazoria so tropical storm Fran scene has us under weather impact alert days Tuesday and Wednesday the primary threat is going to be some heavy rain some scattered storms some downpours and threats along the coastline I need you to keep up with the forecast because this

late Tuesday night into early Wednesday for houstonians wraparound rain I think is going to be the biggest issue on Tuesday scattered storms throughout the day we could see some lingering moisture into Wednesday morning for the coast we're going to see elevated Tides a storm surge threat Coastal erosion Coastal floodings a possibility don't let your guard down just make sure you follow the forecast as we track Francine and see any new developments or any shifts in that forecast tropical storm watches for Brownsville and along Coastal Waters this includes the coastal Waters of our Coastline Chambers Galviston Brazoria and Matagorda notice further east the threat becomes a little bit more elevated so hurricane watches not just for the coast of Louisiana but far inland community ities are seeing the threat of those hurricane force wind speeds and tropical storm wind Fields into New Orleans too the highest likelihood again of seeing the wind damage is going to be where that Storm Center tracks so right now like Charles Lafayette New Orleans under the gun for that but even our Coastal Counties have about a 50 to 60% chance to see some wind impact so that could mean we're not out of the woods when it comes to the potential of power outage threats or tropical storm Force impacts but all in all we are on the clean side of the storm remember the dirty side where we see the worst impacts is the right side check out these outer rainbands all throughout Tuesday even into the evening hour so that's a snapshot at 11:30 p.m. you'll notice the center now well defined and it'll race towards Louisiana by Wednesday morning maybe we see some residual rainbands filtering into Southeast Texas but a lot of the moisture the energy the Windfield all the threats right now shifted towards the east 1:00 in the afternoon looks like the eye moves Inland and then it'll continue to race towards Kentucky by um late Wednesday into Thursday Thursday forecast so this is the rain all throughout the week you'll notice the total have dropped down because now the National Hurricane Center has a little better understanding as to where Francine is tracking now that the tropical storm has developed rainfall totals for us will be most significant along the coastline uh widespread 1 to 2 in isolated spots I think could see more than this but the general bottom line is that Inland impacts will be mitigated with Francine's track shifting further and further towards the east no flood threat today notice tomorrow were highlighted under a level two threat slight risk for flooding this includes a portion of Harris County all of Chambers Galveston Brazoria and Matagorda counties this continues into Wednesday but it shifts a little bit further east which is reflecting what Francine will be doing at this point uh pulk County Liberty County still a portion of Harris Chambers galvaston as well as Brazoria so tropical stor storm Francine has this under weather impact alert days Tuesday and Wednesday the primary threat is going to be some heavy rain some scattered storms some downpours and threats along the coastline I need you to keep up with the forecast because this is a developing system it's still very fluid and we're going to see some shifts to the track some shifts to the intensity so keep up with us I'm K1 meteorologist Kim Castro brand new update from

miles an hour here's the convective field it's pretty expansive so even though the track has shifted further east we could still see some wraparound rain impacting Houston but overall this is a good scenario for Texans right now the National Hurricane Center has tropical storm frame seen gaining some momentum by this evening then becoming a category 1 Hurricane by tomorrow evening it's expected

Brownsville and along Coastal Waters this includes the coastal Waters of our Coastline Chambers galvaston Brazoria and madag gorta notice further east the threat becomes a little bit more elevated so hurricane watches not just for the coast of Louisiana but far inland communities are seeing the threat of those hurricane force wind speeds and tropical storm wind Fields into New Orleans too the highest likelihood again of seeing the wind damage is going to be where that Storm Center tracks so right now like Charles Lafayette New Orleans under the gun for that but even our Coastal Counties have about a 50 to 60% chance to see some wind impact so that could mean we're not out of the woods when it comes to the potential of power outage threats or tropical storm Force impacts but all in all we are on the clean side of this storm remember the dirty side where we see the worst impacts is the right side check out these outer rainbands all throughout Tuesday even into the evening hour so that's a snapshot at 11:30 p.m. you'll notice the center now well defined and it'll race towards Louisiana by Wednesday morning maybe we see some residual rainbands filtering into Southeast Texas but a lot of the moisture the energy the Windfield all the threats right now shifted towards the east 1:00 in the afternoon looks like the eye moves Inland and then it'll continue to race towards Kentucky by um late Wednesday into Thursday Thursday day forecast so this is the rain all throughout the week you'll notice the totals have dropped down because now the National Hurricane Center has a little better understanding as to where Francine is tracking now that the tropical storm has developed rainfall totals for us will be most significant along the coastline uh widespread 1 to 2 in isolated spots I think could see more than this but the general bottom line is that Inland impacts will be mitigated with fr Ren's track shifting further and further towards the east no flood threat today notice tomorrow we highlighted under a level two threat slight risk for flooding this includes a portion of Harris County all of Chambers Galveston Brazoria and Mador counties this continues into Wednesday but it shifts a little bit further east which is reflecting what Francine will be doing at this point uh pulk County Liberty County still a portion of Harris Chambers Galveston as well as Brazoria so tropical storm Fran scene has his under weather impact alert days Tuesday and Wednesday the primary threat is going to be some heavy rain some scattered storms some downpours and threats along the coastline I need you to keep up with the forecast because this is a developing system it's still very fluid and we're going to see some shifts to the track some shifts to the intensity so keep up with us I'm K1 meteorologist Kim Castro brand new update from the National Hurricane Center we have tropical storm FR scene here are the current stats still holding at 50 mph winds pressure has dropped ever so slightly and it's moving at a North Northwest jog 5 miles an hour here's the convective field it's pretty expansive so even though the track has shifted further east we could still see some wraparound rain impacting Houston but overall this is a good scenario for Texas right now the National Hurricane Center has tropical storm Fran scen gaining some momentum by this evening then becoming a category 1 Hurricane by tomorrow evening it's expected to maintain that strength as it makes a landfall somewhere near Lake Charles this could Encompass Lafayette as well and notice the cone of uncertainty stretches as far east as New Orleans now this could shift which is why you're going to want to watch the forecast throughout the day as we get more updates once for scene starts to

60% chance to see some wind impact so that could mean we're not out of the woods when it comes to the potential of power outage threats or tropical storm Force impacts but all in all we are on the clean side of the storm remember the dirty side where we see the worst impacts is the right side check out these outer rainbands all throughout Tuesday even into the evening hour so that's a snapshot at 11:30 p.m. you'll notice the center now well defined and it'll race towards Louisiana by Wednesday morning maybe we see some residual rainbands filtering into Southeast Texas I'm meteorologist Kim Castro this is your latest tropical up updates as of the 1:00 advisory from the National Hurricane Center tropical storm Fran scene is gaining intensity and organization so it jumped up from 50 mph winds to Now 60 and it's also seen a pretty significant pressure drop it went from a,2 mbars to 996 it's moving to the north northwest at 5 miles an hour and is expected to make a turn towards the Northeast so this is a more favorable forecast for Texas we'll have to watch the majority of the impacts towards Louisiana we'll still see some wraparound outer bands that will cause some issues here in Houston I'll have more details on that in a moment but look at the infrared imagery here you'll see where it's getting a little bit more Consolidated a little bit better organized and that's why we have a better understanding as where it's going to track so Francine is moving towards the east this is the latest cone from the National Hurricane Center expected to gain category 1 hurricane strength by Tuesday night and then sustain a cat one strength although gaining some intensity by Wednesday and that's when we're looking at a landfall along the Louisiana Coastline near Lake Charles 85 mil an hour could this system gain even more intensity could it undergo rapid intensification yes so we'll still have to monitor the next advisories that come out throughout the day and into tomorrow to see if there are any developments but for now the southwestern most portion of Louisiana all the way into New Orleans under that highest risk tropical loads look like this we're watching tropical storm watches along our our Coastal Waters so Chambers Galveston Brazoria seeing the potential of tropical storm Forest winds and then not just the coastline of Louisiana under a hurricane watch but inland area so now we have a big highlighted area High Impact Zone for Louisiana locally Coastal flood warning is in effect this includes Chambers Galveston Brazoria Matagorda is under an advisory so it's expected to see lesser impacts but impacts nonetheless both of these advisories and warnings in effect until 1:00 Wednesday afternoon have a look at Future track so now we're looking at the cone and Future Track radar you'll notice already by Tuesday morning in early afternoon widespread heavy downpours especially along the coastline and watch the time stamp there and then also keep an eye on radar here we'll see a little bit of a break maybe in the afternoon and then more rounds as we head into Tuesday evening I think Tuesday is going to be the biggest impact day as far as torrential downpours if this forecast holds keep in mind this could speed up or it could slow down a little bit so as of Monday afternoon this is the latest forecast we'll have to F tune it as we get a little bit closer towards tomorrow morning so just check back in with us throughout the day Wednesday 1:00 that's when we could see a potential landfall along the Louisiana Coastline so we'll give us a little leeway here sometime between Wednesday late morning through Wednesday early afternoon notice as this energy pushes towards Louisiana the outer bands start to lift a little bit further north and I don't think they'll wrap around quite as intensely as they might on Tuesday let's talk about the Windfield it's tracking again where the landfall will be so the highest likelihood for at least tropical storm force winds at least 39 M an hour all the way up to Hurricane Forest winds uh highest likelihood for that Lake Charles Lafayette along the Louisiana Coastline about 80 to 90% chance there and then some chance for our Coastal counties to also see the wind impacts not to mention the storm surge the coastal erosion all of the coastal threats that come with the push of energy from a hurricane so we'll have that probability for our immediate Coastline at around 50 to 60% so that could lead to some power outages so just keep that in mind I'm letting you know so you can make those preparations today even though the majority of the impacts are going to be to our East we're still under a weather impact alert Tuesday and Wednesday we could still see some heavy rain although this is a much better forecast for Texans keep an eye on it because things could change scattered storms Tuesday maybe into early Wednesday morning elevated Tides storm surge Coastal erosion coastal flooding all on the table I'm going to say this 30,000 times because it really pays to watch the forecast especially when a system like this is so close to us but for now here's a detailed look at what we could see Coastal showers that pick up the pace on Tuesday morning maybe some Coastal showers that Advance further Inland into Harris County I think your highest likelihood for Harris County to see some showers and the push of some of that Gusty wind is going to be between 2 and 6:00 then you'll notice nine wraparound showers moving from Livingston uh towards San jinto towards Montgomery and then lifting as the system continues to push towards the Northeast rainfall accumulation on average should be manageable this is one forecast model so don't be married to this however the general idea is that the impacts are very much reduced in comparison to where the center of that storm is going to be tracking we don't have a flood threat today because we don't have a rain chance today tomorrow however as those rain chances go up the threat goes up up to a level two slight risk on the 1 to four scale notice Harris County the southeast most portion of it is under that level two thread as well the rest of the area about under a level one and then these threats scrunch further towards Louisiana as we head into Wednesday but a fluid situation so I want you to prepare it's always best to get ahead of the game and then not see anything then to not be ready and then see everything so treat this as you would any system that's in the Gulf close enough to raise an eyebrow so make sure you've got your non- perishable food your water supply isn't depleted I know sometimes it's easy if it's been sitting on the shelf to just um drink the water and forget to replenish it so just make sure you've got all of these uh checklist items accounted for just in case you know it doesn't take much for us to lose power so just in case we do see one or two Gusty winds swirling around in here and your neighborhood loses power don't forget to fill up your car to and try to get some cash in case we lose power we'll keep you updated if anything at all changes um look on our social

for our immediate Coastline at around 50 to 0% so that could lead to some power outages so just keep that in mind I'm letting you know so you can make those preparations today even though the majority of the impacts are going to be to our East we're still under a weather impact alert Tuesday and Wednesday we could still see some heavy rain although this is a much better forecast for Texans keep an eye on it because things could change scattered storms Tuesday maybe into to early Wednesday morning elevated Tides storm surge Coastal erosion coastal flooding all on the table I'm going to say this 30,000 times because it really pays to watch the forecast especially when a system like this is so close to us but for now here's a detailed look at what we could see Coastal showers that pick up the pace on Tuesday morning maybe some Coastal showers that Advance further Inland into Harris County I think your highest likelihood for Harris County to see some showers and the push of some of that Gusty wind is going to be between 2 and 6:00 then you'll notice nine wraparound showers moving from Livingston uh towards San jinto towards Montgomery and then lifting as the system continues to push towards the Northeast rainfall accumulation on average should be manageable this is one forecast model so don't be married to this however the general idea is that the impacts are very much reduced in comparison to where the center of that storm is going to be tracking we don't have a flood threat today because we don't have a rain chance today tomorrow however as those rain chances go up the threat goes up to a level two slight risk on the one to four scale noce Harris County the southeast most portion of it is under that level two threat as well the rest of the area about under a level one and then these threats scrunch for further towards Louisiana as we head into Wednesday but a fluid situation so I want you to prepare it's always best to get ahead of the game and then not see anything then to not be ready and then see everything so treat this as you would any system that's in the Gulf close enough to raise an eyebrow so make sure you've got your non- perishable food your water supply isn't depleted I know sometimes it's easy if it's been sitting on the shelf to just um drink the water and forget to replenish it so just make sure you've got all of these uh checklist items accounted for just in case you know it doesn't take much for us to lose power so just in case we do see one or two Gusty winds swirling around in here and your neighborhood loses power don't forget to fill up your car too and try to get some cash in case we lose power we'll keep you updated if anything all changes um look on our social media look on k.com and we'll make sure that you know first I'm meteorologist Kim Castro this is your latest tropical updates as of the 1:00 advisory from the National Hurricane Center tropical storm Fran scene is gaining intensity and organization so it jumped up from 50 mph winds to Now 60 and it's also seen a pretty significant pressure drop it went from a,2 mbar to 900 96 it's moving to the north northwest at 5 mph and is expected to make a turn towards the Northeast so this is a more favorable forecast for Texans we'll have to watch the majority of the impacts towards Louisiana we'll still see some wraparound outer bands that will cause some issues here in Houston I'll have more details on that in a moment but look at the infrared imagery here you'll see where it's getting a little bit more Consolidated a little bit better organ organized and that's why we have a better understanding as where it's going to track so Francine is moving towards the east this is the latest cone from the National Hurricane Center expected to gain category 1 hurricane strength by Tuesday night and then sustain a cat one strength although gaining some intensity by Wednesday and that's when we're looking at a landfall along the Louisiana Coastline near Lake Charles 85 miles an hour could this system gain even more intensity could it undergo rapid intensification yes so we'll still have to monitor the next advisories that come out throughout the day and into tomorrow to see if there are any developments but for now the southwestern most portion of Louisiana all the way into New Orleans under that highest risk tropical loads look like this we're watching tropical storm watches along our our Coastal Waters so Chambers Galveston Brazoria seeing the potential of tropical storm Forest winds and then not just the coastline of Louisiana under a hurricane watch but inland area so now we have a big highlighted Area High Impact Zone for Louisiana locally Coastal flood warning is in effect this includes Chambers Galveston Brazoria Matagorda is under an advisory so it's expected to see lesser impacts but impacts nonetheless both of these advisories and Mornings in effect until 1:00 Wednesday afternoon have a look at Future track so now we're looking at the cone and Future Track radar you'll notice already by Tuesday morning and early afternoon widespread heavy downpours especially along the coastline and watch the time stamp there and then also keep an eye on radar here we'll see a little bit of a break maybe in the afternoon and then more rounds as we head into Tuesday evening I think Tuesday is going to be the big impact day as far as torrential downpours if this forecast holds keep in mind this could speed up or it could slow down a little bit so as of Monday afternoon this is the latest forecast we'll have to F tune it as we get a little bit closer towards tomorrow morning so just check back in with us throughout the day Wednesday 1:00 that's when we could see a potential landfall along the Louisiana Coastline so we'll give us a little leeway here sometime between Wednesday late morning through Wednesday early afternoon notice as his energy pushes towards Louisiana the outer bands start to lift a little bit further north and I don't think they'll wrap around quite as intensely as they might on Tuesday let's talk about the Windfield it's tracking again where the landfall will be so the highest likelihood for at least tropical storm force winds at least 39 M an hour all the way up to Hurricane force winds uh highest likelihood for that Lake Charles Lafayette along the Louisiana Coastline about 80 to 90% chance there and then some chance for our Coastal counties to also see the wind impacts not to mention the storm surge the coastal erosion all of the coastal threats that come with the push of energy from a hurricane so we'll have that probability for our immediate Coastline at around 50 to 60% so that could lead to some power outages so just keep that in mind I'm letting you know so you can make those preparations today even though the majority of the impacts are going to be to our East we're still under a weather impact alert Tuesday and Wednesday we could still see some heavy rain although this is a much better forecast for Texans keep an eye on it because things could change scattered storms Tuesday maybe into early Wednesday morning elevated Tides storm surch Coastal erosion coastal flooding all on the table I'm going to say this 30,000 times because it really pays to watch the forecast especially when a system like this is so close to us but for now here's a detailed look at what we could see Coastal showers that pick up the pce e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e

e e e e Dr Brandon it's nice to see you although every time I see you there's a hurricane threatening or hopefully this one about to graze by us and I wanted to talk about that first e um the uh 10:00 the 1 p.m. and now the 4 pm. the tracks all seem to be similar it looks like you guys at the Hurricane Center are getting a little more confident in how this forecast track is going to play out yeah you're right David we've seen the storm get a lot better organized today so now we have a much better idea of where the systems located now we did see the center sort of jog a little Westward during the day based on the aircraft data and what we're seeing now in the satellite imagery so the track did shift about 30 or 35 miles a little to the left but still keeps the core of the hurricane off much of the Texas coast including the Houston area still going to see the potential for peripheral impacts and we did go ahead and issue that tropical storm watch for the Texas Coastline now to you know account for the possibility of those tropical storm conditions especially if the track were to shift a little farther to the left in the next 12 to 24 hours well I know this is this is a tough forecast for you guys because you've got a huge population right on the coast here in Houston Galveston and now you've got potentially a cat 2 but the forecast has it just grazing bias and and way too close for comfort but what I wanted to address with you is and explain to our viewers because we are going to be on the weak side of this storm that may be what makes the biggest difference in in lowering the impacts here yeah you're right you know if the Center passes you know East or southeast of the Houston Galviston area you're going to be on sort of the West on the west side of the storm with offshore flow drier air you know the winds are going to be weaker because the storm's going to be accelerating and those you know faster forward motions going to add to the wind speed of the storm on the right side reduce it on the left so again most of those impacts are going to be sort of right along the immediate Coast but they're going to rapidly increase just as you go a little farther east you have tropical storm warnings uh you know in effect for the extreme upper Texas coast then we go right to a hurricane warning from sabean pass Eastward so it's pretty sharp gradients that's what we see a lot of times with strengthening of Storms and Powerful hurricane but again the west side is usually a little easier in terms of impacts and that's what we're hoping is going to be the case for the Houston Galveston area with Francine we are hoping for the best and we are thinking of our neighbors in Louisiana who may take a hard hit from this Dr Michael Brennan is director of the National Hurricane Center Dr Mike thanks for your time Dr Brennan it's nice to see you although every time I see you there's a hurricane threatening or hopefully this one about to graze by us and

going to be sort of right along the immediate Coast but they're going to rapidly increase just as you go a little farther east you have tropical storm warnings uh you know in effect for the extreme upper Texas coast then we go right to a hurricane warning from sabean pass Eastward so it's pretty sharp gradients that's what we see a lot of times with strengthening storms and Powerful hurricanes but again the west side is usually a little easier in terms of impacts and that's what we're hoping is going to be the case for the Houston Galveston area with Francine we are hoping for the best and we are thinking of our neighbors in Louisiana who may take a hard hit from this Dr Michael Brennan is director of the National Hurricane Center Dr Mike thanks for your time uh Dr Brandon it's nice to see you although every time I see you there's a hurricane threatening or hopefully this one about to graze by us and I wanted to talk about that first um the uh 10:00 the 1 p.m. and now the 400 p.m. the tracks all seem to be similar it looks like you guys at the Hurricane Center are getting a little more confident in how this forecast track is going to play out yeah you're right David we've seen the storm get a lot better or organized today so now we have a much better idea of where the system's located now we did see the center sort of jog a little Westward during the day based on the aircraft data and what we're seeing now in the satellite imagery so the track did shift about 30 or 35 miles a little to the left but still keeps the core of the hurricane off much of the Texas coast including the Houston area still going to see the potential for peripheral impacts and we did go ahead and issue that tropical storm watch for the Texas Coastline now to you know account for the possibility of those tropical storm conditions especially if the track to shift a little farther to the left in the next 12 to 24 hours well I know this is this is a tough forecast for you guys because you've got a huge population right on the coast here in Houston Galveston and now you've got potentially a cat 2 but the forecast has it just grazing bias and and way too close for comfort but what I wanted to address with you is and explain to our viewers because we are going to be on the weak side of this storm that may be what makes the biggest difference in in lowering the impacts here yeah you're right you know if the Center passes you know East or southeast of the Houston Galveston area you're going to be on sort of the West on the west side of the storm with the offshore flow drier air you know the winds are going to be weaker because the storm's going to be accelerating and those you know faster forward motions going to add to the wind speed of the storm on the right side

and issue that tropical storm watch e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e hi everybody David Paul with you here in the hou1 weather center wanted to step in and give you a complete update on what is now tropical storm Fran scine but is expected to become hurricane Francine by Tuesday morning and then slide by the upper Texas coast as a category two hurricane Winds of 100 or above as we go into Tuesday night and early Wednesday morning and get you through what we think the impacts are going to be now first of all what we've done is issue a weather impact alert for Tuesday this is for all day Tuesday but the impacts are going to be gradiated from maybe some heavy rain on the coast to maybe not much Inland depending on the exact track of the system so all day Tuesday into Tuesday night weather impact alerts in effect for Heavy Rain especially near the coast monitor the forecast several times a day sometimes these things can change and that in this case could very much change the impacts to the coast and Inland now as we look at our Inland forecast for Tuesday this is for for Houston for harrris County not much we'd have partly to mostly cloudy skies we might see a little bit of rain later in the afternoon but rain chances for Inland areas tomorrow are not very high the winds are not expected to be strong at all maybe 10 to 15 out of the Northeast but down on the coast the forecast is completely different we expect rain a good chance of it all day from the morning all the way through the afternoon in the evening for Galveston bolevard Coast of Bor madora County as well could be a very wet day we could see several inches of rain in spots and you've got a coastal flood warning because as this storm goes by it's going to raise the tides could raise them 1 to three feet and so low-lying roads you know where they are they could see high water on them Tuesday Tuesday night into early Wednesday morning so it's A Tail of Two forecast the wet coast and maybe not so much Inland now here's where the storm is as of 7:00 Monday evening it's about 110 miles southsouth east of Brownsville winds at 65 so still a tropical storm got to get winds to 74 mph to upgrade it to a category 1 hurricane and we think that's going to happen overnight tonight by Tuesday morning this is going to be a hurricane it's moving North Northwest at 7 miles an hour zoom in uh Brownsville radar clearly picking up the center of the storm maybe even a little eye trying to form down there you can see the outer rainband Heavy Rain there and a little bit of an outer rainband getting folks on South Padre Island a little bit wet right now as well forecast track from the Hurricane Center takes the cone right up the Texas coast and into Louisiana this is forecasting a Louisiana landfall as a category 2 Winds of 100 miles an hour as we head into early Wednesday afternoon so places like vermillian Bay to Lafayette to uh all the way to New Orleans they'll be on the right hand side of the track they'll get the dirty side they'll get the brunt of hurricane Francine we on this track would be on the leftand side of the track that's the clean side and that's going to make a huge difference because we're on the clean side even though we're so close to a category 2 hurricane the clean side is called that for a reason quite often rain chances are much lower winds are much lighter and that will have uh ramifications as to how the impacts here play out and I wanted to talk about the quadrant so again the right hand side this is where much stronger winds rain tornado threat everything on the right hand side to a storm moving North the right hand side gets the bad stuff that's the dirty side that's where New Orleans and Lafayette and Baton Rouge are going to be we will be on the cleaner side the weaker side so our impacts are much much reduced on the weak side of that storm and that is according to this forecast where we're going to be here's kind of a big picture on how the storm is expected to move cat one tomorrow morning becomes a cat 2 late Tuesday night perhaps into the wee hours of Wednesday morning become a cat two you can see at that point moving to the Northeast and accelerating as it as it does so then the storm continues into Louisiana that is the forecast cone from the hurricane center that is one of our high-res models that has the center of the storm a little bit on the Eastern side of the center of that cone but I do want to talk about the cone real quick so the forecast con from the Hurricane Center you may have also heard it called the cone of UN un certainty that is because there's uncertainty with every forecast so that's the cone as it stands now from the Hurricane Center the best mines in Hurricane forecasting think it's most likely that the storm will be somewhere in this cone but statistically it only stays in the cone 66% of the time the other 33% of the time we see the track end up getting outside the forecast cone so because this is so close to us clearly we are going to have to watch this very very carefully so again urging you download the app and just stay with us all day long Tuesday Tuesday night Wednesday so you know what this thing is doing in case it decides to alter its track just a little bit and you know this type of a thing if that storm moves further west or to the left of that Center you know we could have much greater impacts on the coast because of that so this is something we have to watch very very carefully uh here are the impacts closer to home Future Track 7: a.m. Tuesday rain getting close to the coast rain on the coast that's by noon Tuesday but notice nothing in the way of rain forecast for Inland areas we go into the afternoon maybe a few showers getting Inland most of the rain on the coast heavier rain offshore at that point that's 5:00 Tuesday we'll go into Tuesday night so here's 10 o'clock Tuesday night again the coast getting the greatest impacts with rain and maybe some gust to near tropical storm force on the coast Tuesday night and early Wednesday morning and as we get into 6:00 a.m. Wednesday you know there's the center of the storm so the Western eye wall if this forecast verifies is going to be about 100 115 miles off the coast of galvaston that's far enough out to put almost all the bad stuff over the Open Water of the Gulf of Mexico and not bring it into Houston Galviston but anytime you've got a powerful hurricane a strong Cat 2 Winds of 100 or more passing that close to you any wobble and track is going to have big implications it's a small move you know 20 30 miles further to the west and we get get much more in the way of wind and rain especially on the coast in the bay so I'm urging everybody to pay very close attention and be prepared to take action you know if that forecast track does move a little bit then forecast is uh taking the storm into Vermillion Bay on the South Central Coast of Louisiana during the Wednesday afternoon time frame what about winds well on that track Tuesday Morning these are gusts these are not sustained winds these are just the gusts so a gust to 23 and Galas and a to 16 in Houston that's 5:00 a.m. tomorrow morning Tuesday Morning Noon Tuesday gusting near near 30 in Galveston can handle that Northeast gust to 16 or so for Inland areas again not sustained but just wind gusts we get into Tuesday evening now we're gusting above 30 it's it's not out of the question we could see some limbs some of that are loose come down on some power lines so power outages right near the coast in the bay you know it's possible Inland I don't think so winds at 15 miles an hour that's a beautiful Breezy evening for Houston on that track we go into Wednesday morning so this is when we could see gusts getting close to Tropical Storm Force galon Wednesday morning winds that's when they will be strongest across the bay and across our coastal areas early Wednesday morning in Inland Northeast wind to 20 at Houston to 22 at Javi 15 miles hour at Huntsville we should be able to handle that no problem we go into Wednesday afternoon and things will begin to settle down wind and rainwise as it all gets taken up and picked up into Louisiana and that actually brings in a North breeze so this is also interesting because of the counterclockwise circulation it's going to keep this northeast and North Breeze that we've been enjoying going through Wednesday so if that track does stay off the coast and we miss all the bad stuff this ends up making for some nice weather going into the middle and latter part of the week in the meantime a coastal flood warning is in effect for the coast and the bay when you get these big storms coming through you know it's like dropping a pebble in a pond it sends out ripples we're going to see surf we're going to see Tides come up one to three feet above normal that will inundate some of the low-lying roads and if we do end up getting some heavy rain on top of that then you've got a lot of low-lying spots that are going to get some high water on that we saw that last week with all the rain so we may see some of the same spots get some high water and we are under a tropical storm watch not a warning but a watch because that thing is going to pass so close we're watching it very very carefully rain total forecast whether they're not over the top at all this particular model showing one to two inches in some spots on the coast again this is going to be just a matter of inches whether or not the heavy rain does stay off or we get more heavy rain in our Coastal counties it's something we're just going to have to watch moment to moment it's it's a very delicate forecast when you have such a powerful compact storm system moving so close to where we live so bottom line impact from Francine Heavy Rain threat on the coast tomorrow and Wednesday elevated surf Coastal erosion strong winds I think the the coastal erosion and the surf are definitely going to be factors for galison I know y'all struggle with that uh and we're going to have more of that with this with the heavy surf that's going to be be spun off from that circulation regardless if it gets close to us or not that's going to send a lot of surf into the Texas coast what you need to be doing is check the forecast at least twice a day probably more than that tomorrow in case any changes to that track happen and we end up having to shift gears quickly to a more impactful situation although in talking with Dr Michael Brennan uh the director of the National Hurricane Center this afternoon we've had now three forecast cones the 10 a.m. the 100 p.m. and the 700 p.m. the one we just looked at and they were all basically the same so I asked him directly how do we feel about that forecast and he says they're pretty confident that that's the way this is going to play out so we'll take it one moment at a time and watch and see if it does that's where we stand we'll keep you posted as we move through Tuesday and Tuesday night and watch Francine hopefully Grays on by and our thoughts are with folks in Louisiana who may take a harder hit we'll have an up update a complete update on kh1 news at 10:00 we'll see you then hi everybody David Paul with you here in the kou1 weather center wanted to step in and give you a complete update on what is now tropical storm FR scen but is expected to become hurricane Francine by Tuesday morning and then slide by the upper Texas coast as a category 2 hurricane Winds of 100 or above as we go into Tuesday night and early Wednesday morning and get you through what we think the impacts are going to be now first of all what we've done is issue a weather impact alert for Tuesday this is for all day Tuesday but the impacts are going to be gradiated from maybe some heavy rain on the coast to maybe not much Inland depending on the exact track of the system so all day Tuesday into Tuesday night weather impact alerts in effect for Heavy Rain especially near the coast monitor the forecast several times a day sometimes these things can change and that in this case could very much changed the impacts to the coast and Inland now as we look at our Inland forecast for Tuesday this is for for Houston for Harris County not much we'd have partly the mostly cloudy skies we might see a little bit of rain later in the afternoon but rain chances for Inland areas tomorrow are not very high the winds are not expected to be strong at all maybe 10 to 15 out of the Northeast but down on the coast the forecast is completely different we expect rain a good chance of it all day from the morning all the way through the afternoon in the evening for Galveston bolevard Coast of Bor madora County as well could be a very wet day we could see several inches of rain in spots and you've got a coastal flood warning because as this storm goes by it's going to raise the tides could raise them 1 to three feet and so low-lying roads you know where they are they could see high water on them Tuesday Tuesday night into early Wednesday morning so it's a taale of two forecast the wet coast and maybe not so much Inland now here's where the storm is as of 7 o'clock Monday evening it's about 110 miles southsouth east of Brownsville winds at 65 so still a tropical storm got to get winds to 74 miles an hour to upgrade it to a category 1 hurricane and we think that's going to happen overnight tonight by Tuesday morning this is going to be a hurricane it's moving North
