Tropical Storm Alberto formed in the SW Gulf of Mexico this morning around 10 AM and should make landfall in eastern Mexico overnight. Alberto will bring waves of heavy rain to SE Texas through this evening along with gusty winds and coastal flooding. Some roads along the coast are impassable due to storm surge flooding. Wind should gradually subside and heaviest rain will push west Thursday as Alberto moves farther away and weakens over land.
