Tropical Storm Edouard has formed about 95 miles southeast of the mouth of the Mississippi River... tropical storm warnings are posted for Lower Plaquemines, Jefferson, Lafourche and Terrebonne parishes... as these coastal parishes could experience winds up to about 40 miles per hour. Also coastal areas east of the Mississippi could experience tides about 2 feet above normal, coastal areas west of the mouth of the Mississippi could experience tides 4 feet above normal. These same areas could also experience heavy rains as the storm moves toward the Texas coast.

The 8pm computer models show even more agreement that the storm will pass south of SE Louisiana, keeping its westward track toward the Texas gulf coast. A surface and mid level high force the system on this westward track.
