Mobile, Alabama, and Pensacola,
Florida. We are seeing a rightward
adjustment to the track,” National
Hurricane Center meteorologist
Hugh Cobb said.
Today’s local forecast calls for a
20 percent chance of showers or
thunderstorms with a high in the
mid 90s and a north wind at 10
mphto 15 mph.
The National Hurricane Center
extended its tropical storm warn-
ing from the Mississippi River
Delta region, including Grand Isle
and New (Means, eastward to
Apalachicola, Fla.
Tropical storm watches were in
effect from Grand Isle west to
" Morgan City, La. A disturbance
sliding south across Louisiana
was likely to pull the storm north,
Cobb said.
Southeast Louisiana is likely to
get high tides, showers and thun-
derstorms, but should escape the
worst of the storm, forecasters
said.
Barry, the second named storm
of the 2001 Atlantic hurricane
season, was getting better orga-
nized and was expected to slowly
gain strength during the weekend
In June, Tropical Storm Allison
dumped 20 inches of rain in
Louisiana and 32 in Texas, much
■ of it as the storm sat for days off
the coast. What was left of the
storm then moved east and north,
causing floods as far north as
Pennsylvania.
Barry already had dumped
more than a foot of rain on parts
of Florida before moving into the
Gulf of Mexico.
It churned up 6- and 8-foot
waves and rip tides along
Alabama’s coast and lifted tides 2
feet above normal on the north
side of Grand Isle, Louisiana’s
only inhabited barrier island
Oil companies evacuated
nonessential personnel from off-
shore petroleum rigs Friday.
