Tropical Storm Barry: Stats, storm track and more

Tropical storm warnings to the east and hurricane warnings to the west.

After briefly becoming a hurricane just before landfall Saturday afternoon, it weakened to become a tropical storm once again as it came ashore near Intracoastal City, Louisiana. 

The storm's forward speed maintained a fairly slow, almost walking pace, as it continued to move through the state of Louisiana. 

By Sunday morning,  Barry's center was located near the city of Alexandria.

WATCHES AND WARNINGS IN EFFECT

The last remaining coastal warning is a tropical storm warning for coastal Louisiana from Morgan City to Cameron. All other coastal tropical warnings have been dropped. 

Tropical, monsoon-like rainfall is deluging portions of Louisiana and Mississippi. Flash flood watches are posted from Louisiana and Mississippi northward into Arkansas, Tennessee as well as portions of Missouri, far western Kentucky and southern Illinois.

River flood warnings are still in effect for the Mississippi River from snowmelt and heavy rainfall upstream. Other flood warnings are likely in areas directly affected by the heavy rainfall as the storm continues its march inland.
