Waves and surge from Tropical Storm Barry will impact Gulf Coast beaches

To better understand storm impacts on the coast, the USGS National Assessment of Storm-Induced Coastal Change Hazards group is responding to Tropical Storm Barry.

The USGS National Assessment of Coastal Change Hazards storm team is predicting coastal change impacts due to the potential for high waves and elevated water levels along the Gulf Coast from Louisiana through the Florida Panhandle. Predictions will be updated as conditions change and are available in the Coastal Change Hazards Portal.
