Gulf disturbance set to become a tropical storm as Texas–Louisiana coast braces for impacts

A disturbance in the northwestern Gulf is forecast to strengthen into a tropical storm before making landfall along the northwestern Gulf Coast on Tuesday, triggering Tropical Storm Warnings from Port Bolivar, TX to the Vermilion/Cameron Parish line in Louisiana.
