Tropical Storm Nicholas Threatens Heavy Rain in Louisiana, Texas

Tropical Storm Nicholas gained power as it neared the Texas coast early Monday and is expected to bring flooding rains to Houston and parts of Louisiana still recovering from Hurricane Ida’s blow two weeks ago.

With winds of 60 miles (97 kilometers) per hour, Nicholas was 40 miles southeast of the Rio Grande River, the National Hurricane Center said in a 8 a.m. New York time advisory. The storm, on pace to make landfall within the next 24 hours, threatens to cause even more disruptions for the region’s oil and natural gas industries, which were battered by Ida.
