At 10:15AM CDT it was reported coming ashore. It just popped up off the mouth of the Rio Bravo/Rio Grande this morning. Its main impact will be to cause the floods in the river valley from Alex to get worse as it supplies more rain, and to aggravate the flooding along the Texas coast North to Louisiana.
