Tropics active, nothing heading for Louisiana now

Tropics

The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Tropical Depression Kate, located over the central Atlantic and on Tropical Storm Larry, located over the far eastern tropical Atlantic.

The good news, both are no threat to land.  They are forecast to stay in the Atlantic.


There is also a broad area of low pressure producing disorganized shower activity over the southwestern Caribbean Sea.

"Some slow development of this system is possible over the next couple of days while it moves westward or west-northwestward at 5 to 10 mph toward Central
America," the National Hurricane Center advised. "Thereafter, land interaction with Central America and the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico will likely limit further development of this system."

Tropical Depression Ida, meanwhile, is located over eastern Tennessee.  It continues dropping heavy rain three days after hitting Louisiana as a category four hurricane.
