Hurricane Laura is on track to become a major hurricane on Wednesday and make landfall along the Gulf Coast within the next 48 hours. Tropical Storm Marco, which has lost strength, still has the potential for possible storm surges, according to the National Hurricane Center.
Laura became a hurricane early Tuesday morning and is now on track to make landfall in Louisiana and Texas by late Wednesday night or early Thursday morning. Hurricane Laura has already hit Puerto Rico, Cuba and Hispaniola with heavy rainfall, and at least 11 people in the Caribbean have died as a result of the storm, including a 10-year-old Haitian girl.
The NHC already issued tropical storm warnings across portions of the Caribbean. A hurricane watch was just issued to parts of Texas and Louisiana for portions of the Gulf Coast on Tuesday morning. The hurricane center’s long-range tracking has Laura moving northeast across the United States as it exits Louisiana.
The NHC projects Marco dissipating off the Louisiana coast by Tuesday late afternoon.
Follow Laura and Marco’s path with the map below. It will be updated when the NHC updates its forecasts.
