Slow-moving Gulf depression threatens multi-day flooding across four coastal states

Tropical Depression Two is drifting erratically at 3 mph along the northern Gulf coast, with the NHC forecasting a track paralleling the shoreline over several days rather than a single landfall. That trajectory distributes storm surge of up to 4 feet, 8 inches of rainfall, and possible tornadoes across Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and Florida — a compound flooding threat spanning days.
