Tropical Storm Edouard is forecast to intensify into a hurricane before making landfall in Texas. The National Hurricane Center warns of heavy rainfall and potential flooding, particularly in the Houston area. Coastal regions may face storm surges of up to 5 feet, along with strong winds reaching 74 mph.
