The northeastern Gulf Coast, including parts of Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana, is at risk of heavy rainfall, flash flooding, and tropical storm-force winds exceeding 40 mph. Coastal flooding is expected in Florida's Big Bend region, with water levels rising 1 to 3 feet above normal. Flash flooding may occur as tropical rain bands move onshore, particularly in areas receiving higher rainfall amounts. Residents in the affected regions should prepare for potential disruptions and hazardous conditions.
