At 100 AM CDT (0600 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Barry was
located near latitude 28.0 North, longitude 89.8 West. Barry is
moving toward the west near 3 mph (6 km/h). A slow west-
northwestward to northwestward motion is expected to begin later
today, followed by a turn toward the north on Saturday. On the
forecast track, the center of Barry will be near or over the central
or southeastern coast of Louisiana Friday night or Saturday, and
then move inland into the Lower Mississippi Valley on Sunday.
Data from an Air Force Reserve reconnaissance aircraft indicate
that the maximum sustained winds remain near 50 mph (85 km/h) with
higher gusts. Some strengthening is expected during the next day
or so, and Barry could become a hurricane Friday night or early
Saturday when the center is near the Louisiana coast. Weakening is
expected after Barry moves inland.
Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 140 miles (220 km)
primarily to the south and east of the center.
The minimum central pressure just measured by an Air Force
reconnaissance aircraft was 1001 mb (29.56 inches).
RAINFALL: Barry is expected to produce total rain accumulations of
10 to 20 inches over southeast Louisiana and southwest Mississippi,
with isolated maximum amounts of 25 inches. These rains are expected
to lead to dangerous, life-threatening flooding over portions of the
central Gulf Coast into the Lower Mississippi Valley. Over the
remainder of the Lower Mississippi Valley, total rain accumulations
of 4 to 8 inches are expected, with isolated maximum amounts of 12
inches.
WIND: Hurricane conditions are expected in the Hurricane Warning
area by Friday night or Saturday morning, with tropical storm
conditions expected to begin on Friday. Hurricane conditions are
possible within the Hurricane Watch area by Friday night or
Saturday morning. Tropical Storm conditions are expected to spread
across the Tropical Storm Warning area starting early Friday, with
tropical storm conditions possible in the Tropical Storm Watch area
by Friday night or Saturday.
TORNADOES: A few tornadoes are possible Friday and Friday night
across southeast Louisiana, far southern Mississippi, and the
Alabama coast.
