Good morning. I'm meteorologist Sam Gabrieli with your weather impact forecast when it comes to the tropics. And you can see uh hurricane Francine now, a strong category one hurricane. This is the 7:30 a.m. update on your Wednesday and notice it with time continuing to trek its way to the north only about 100 miles to the south of that coastline with Louisiana. Unfortunately, uh Francine will be making landfall as a category two hurricane. So this is actually a put in perspective with the Saffir Simpson scale in 3d form of what we can expect for our friends in Louisiana. So uh please keep them in your thoughts and prayers between 5 to 10 ft of storm surge is in the forecast. What that means is the rainfall from the Gulf or actually all the ocean from the Gulf and all the water will continue to really make for power outages. A lot of destruction to a lot of homes and a lot of trees and just several damage reports. Power outages will be likely widespread power outages. Wind will be in between 96 to 100 10 miles an hour. So it will be catastrophic for a lot of our friends along that Louisiana coastline with the Gulf of Mexico because likely making landfall around eight pm this evening. And then with time, Francine will continue to march her way up into the Mississippi River valley. So again, uh closer to the morning hours on Thursday, it'll be weakening to a tropical storm in about 24 hours from now. But please keep everybody in your thoughts and prayers, flash flooding is going to be widespread catastrophic, if not life threatening storm surge. And uh you can see the rainfall with this system will be upwards of 3 to 6 inches anywhere from western Tennessee, Memphis all the way in the deep south from Jackson Mississippi down towards New Orleans. As uh, we're gonna be watching a lot of flash flooding going on some life threatening storm surge and super strong wind as wind with the storm could be upwards of 100 miles an hour or greater as your tropics update. We'll have further details throughout the course of the week.
