A low-pressure system in the Gulf could potentially become a tropical storm soon. A tropical storm warning is still in effect for parts of the Louisiana coast.

Flood watches extend all the way from coastal Texas to parts of Georgia, where places could see up to 20 additional inches of rain through Friday. Here’s the latest forecast.
