KWEILYN: A GREAT AFTERNOON TO
FINISH UP THOSE FINAL
PREPARATIONS AHEAD OF TROPICAL
STORM NATE.
OUR CAMERA LOOKING TOWARDS THE
MALL AREA, WE'RE SEEING SOME
CARS ON THE ROAD.
THE HURRICANE WARNING POSTED FOR
PLAQUEMINES PARISH ST. BERNARD

AREAS TO OUR WEST.
ANOTHER CHANGE HAS BEEN THE
INTENSITY CHANGE FROM TROPICAL

THE PRESSURE, YOU CAN SEE THE
CENTER OF CIRCULATION SOUTH OF
MEXICO.
THAT RAIN BAND MOVING TO THE
NORTH AROUND CUBA AND THE
SOUTHERN SIDE OF THE SYSTEM.
NOT TOO MUCH HAPPENING ON THE
EASTERN FRENCH, BUT IT LOOKS
LIKE WE MAY BE DEVELOPING AN EYE
ON THE SYSTEM, THAT MEANS WE MAY
BE SEEING A THUNDERSTORM SYSTEM.
AREA OF LOW PRESSURE, UPPER
LEVEL LOW OVER THE GULF OF
MEXICO, THERE IS THE STEERING
CURRENT.
WE ARE SEEING A SHIFT TO THE
EAST, SO ARE GREATER CHANCE WE
COULD SEE THE CENTER SOMEWHERE

IMPACTS.

HURRICANE.
NOTICE THAT CENTER IS AROUND
PLAQUEMINES PARISH.
THE FOCUS IS THE OUTER CONES
WHICH EXTENDS OVER LAFOURCHE
PARISH AND AS FAR EAST AS THE
FLORIDA PANHANDLE.
KEEP A CLOSE EYE ON THE CONE,
YOU'VE SEEN THE CHANGES THIS
MORNING.
EXPECT MORE CHANGES AS THE DAY
GOES ON.
TIMING OF IMPACT, SURGE
POTENTIAL, COASTAL FLOODING
STILL A CONCERN.

THAT MOISTURE IS BUILDING IN, A
STRAY SHOWER POSSIBLE.
SATURDAY AFTERNOON RAIN BANDS

THAT CENTER APPROACHING THE
COASTLINE BY LATE SATURDAY
NIGHT.
LEAVE THAT WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY
OPEN FROM ABOUT 10:00.
THE CENTER GOING TOWARDS THE
COAST OF MISSISSIPPI.
THIS IS ALL SUBJECT TO CHANGE.
SOMETHING ELSE IN THE TROPICS
OUT IN THE OPEN WATERS OF THE
ATLANTIC, A 50% CHANCE FOR THAT
AREA TO DEVELOP.
