Lafayette, Louisiana, faces potential life-threatening impacts from approaching tropical storm
Lafayette, Louisiana, is one of many coastal communities bracing for the potentially devastating effects of soon-to-be Tropical Storm Francine. This city has a painful history of severe weather events, having experienced major flooding and storm damage during Hurricane Laura in 2020. As Francine approaches, residents are facing the real possibility of similar impacts as early as Wednesday. FOX Weather Meteorologist and Storm Specialist Mike Seidel is live from Lafayette to provide the latest updates on this developing situation.
A tropical disturbance in the Gulf of Mexico dubbed Potential Tropical Cyclone Six has millions along the Texas and Louisiana Gulf coasts on alert as the system is likely to develop into a hurricane this week as the peak of hurricane season approaches.
The National Hurricane Center (NHC) designated the tropical disturbance as a potential tropical cyclone, a designation that allows the NHC to issue routine advisories on a system that has not yet developed into a tropical depression or tropical storm but brings a threat of 39-plus-mph winds to land within 48 hours.
