South Texas is now in the cone of uncertainty,
but what exactly does that mean?
Let's break it down. Once BARREL emerges into the Gulf
of Mexico,
the track and intensity of BARREL become uncertain as computer
models show a wide range of solutions.
Regardless of strength and track,
Texas will still see impact.
Starting as early as this weekend,
there will be an increase in wave heights and a
higher risk for rip currents at the beaches.
Remember to obey beach flags and always swim near a
lifeguard.
In addition, flooding will be possible as Barrel brings heavy
rain and gusty winds to Texas early next week.
