Cristobal Downgraded but Drenches Gulf Coast
Tropical Storm Cristobal weakened to a low mood after drenching coastal Louisiana and spreading heavy rain and surges along the Gulf Coast. Winds peaked near 50 mph at landfall, with up to 15 inches of rain forecast in some areas and river flooding possible in the Mississippi Valley. Rescue efforts continued for two missing boaters near Slidell as Mississippi and Alabama reported flood impacts and evacuated or reopened bridges and routes.
