"Tropical Storm Beta To Drop A Foot Of Rain in Texas and Louisiana"

"Tropical Storm Beta was predicted to bring a foot of rain to parts of coastal Texas and Louisiana next week as the 23rd named storm of this year’s Atlantic hurricane season moves ashore on Monday night, the National Hurricane Center said.

Forecasters warned on Sunday that coastal communities could be inundated with floods and see sustained winds of 60 miles per hour (95 km per hour), though the storm is expected to weaken as it moves inland.

Slow-moving storms that deluge coasts are becoming a regular occurrence, a development that scientists attribute to climate change."
