We have the latest updates from the National Hurricane Center on Tropical Storm Marco and Tropical Storm Laura.

Two storms have never been seen in the Gulf of Mexico at the same time in recorded history, and it appears SWLA will get hit by both storms. How lucky are we to make history?

SWLA will be positioned on the east side of the storm, which is typically the more dangerous side. The wind directions on that side of hurricanes cause more flooding than the western side of the storms, and they're more likely to spawn tornado activity.

The new NHC update on Tropical Storm Laura shows the storm tracking to become a hurricane early Wednesday morning and make landfall Thursday at 2:00am, with a path to make a direct hit to SWLA.
