Double Hurricane Set To Pound Gulf Coast, Both Storms May Be Headed For Louisiana

Two tropical storms, both expected to become hurricanes, are set to make landfall in the Gulf Coast early next week, one on Monday and one on Wednesday, in an unprecedented double-storm event.

Last week, weather experts predicted that the tropical storms, Marco and Laura, would hit in separate locations along the Gulf Coast, with Marco hitting closer to Texas and Louisana, and Laura hitting closer to Alabama and the Florida panhandle. Recent changes in both storms’ trajectories now seem to indicate both will make landfall at the mouth of the Mississippi River, near New Orleans.
