The FOX Forecast Center is closely watching #Invest98L as it moves closer to the Caribbean this week. It has a high chance of development during the next several days. bit.ly/3LDfeaO @JaneMinarWX
As of this morning, #Invest98L was located near the northern coast of South America along the Venezuelan coastline.

It produced scattered showers and thunderstorms for the extreme southeastern Caribbean islands. bit.ly/3LDfeaO Image
In the short term, #Invest98L is in the southeastern Caribbean.

This means places like Trinidad and Tobago, Grenada, Barbados, St. Vincent and the Grenadines and St. Lucia will likely see heavy rain, gusty winds and rough seas. bit.ly/3LDfeaO

This week in #dwhstories, I provide a very broad overview of some of the economic aspects of the spill for further reading. One thing became crystal clear during the #oilspill: the health of our economy is intrinsically linked to the health of our environment.
One of the first economic dominoes to call during the #dwhspill was the #gulfcoast fishing industry. The Gulf region produces the most seafood in the continental United States. preview.tinyurl.com/vb6moqm
Unsurprisingly, the spill led to closures of Gulf waters for most of the summer of 2010. In June of that year, approximately 88,522 square miles of federal waters were closed to fishing, totaling almost 40% of all federal waters in the Gulf. tinyurl.com/rh53pgh

I am thrilled to announce the award of $33M to the @SouthernRailCms, which will support the completion of a years-long effort to restore passenger rail service to the Gulf Coast. wicker.senate.gov/public/index.c…
@SouthernRailCms For Mississippi, restoring passenger rail service to the #GulfCoast is a symbol of the huge strides our state has made to recover from Hurricane Katrina. wicker.senate.gov/public/index.c…
@SouthernRailCms Reconnecting the Gulf Coast to our nation’s passenger rail network will increase access to jobs, provide an alternative to highway travel, and improve quality of life in the region. wicker.senate.gov/public/index.c…
