Tropical Storm Edouard Heads for Texas Coast | Austin News

Tropical Storm Edouard is barreling toward the Texas coast, poised to hit near the Louisiana border today—possibly strengthening into a hurricane with 74+ mph winds. A storm surge warning and hurricane watch are already in effect from High Island, Texas, to the Louisiana border, with landfall expected between noon and 2 PM. Heavy rain—up to 9 inches in spots—could trigger flash flooding, especially in Houston, where a flood watch remains until Wednesday morning. While Edouard’s core stays coastal, Central Texas may see scattered showers, thunderstorms, and gusty winds later this week, risking localized flooding.
