The tropical system targeting Louisiana continues to strengthen early Thursday as residents in some coastal areas have been ordered to evacuate.
"Plaquemines Parish Government has taken all precautions in preparing for Tropical Storm Barry," Parish President Kirk Lepine said in a statement. “Additional rainfall, high winds, and storm surge are expected." There have been hurricane watches, tropical storm watches, flash flood watches and storm surge watches issued for parts of the Gulf Coast Thursday morning. On the present forecast path, the system likely becomes a tropical depression or tropical storm during the day Thursday, when it will be given the name Barry.
