Watching satellite imagery this afternoon, and receiving latest update from National Hurricane Center, Ernesto has been downgraded to a tropical storm with maximum sustained winds of 60 miles per hour. Ernesto had trouble maintaining itself over the mountainous terrain of Haiti. Three day track forecasts continue to take Ernesto over the southern Florida Peninsula. The intensity will vary as the storm is expected to move over open water and then land before advancing to the eastern Gulf of Mexico, close to the Florida coast.

Scattered thunderstorms continue to affect coastal regions of SE Lousiana. We will continue to see spotty showers this evening.
