If you live in portions of the northern Gulf coast highlighted here, winds are forecast to be high enough to make further preparations for Isaias impossible by Friday. Do you have an evacuation plan? Is your home ready? Prepare now. weather.gov/safety/hurricane
National Hurricane Center map showing the earliest reasonable arrival times of tropical-storm-force winds from Tropical Storm Isaias, as of October 7, 2026. Tropical-storm-force winds could reach the southern Gulf of Mexico Wednesday evening, spread northeast across the central Gulf Thursday, and reach portions of the northern Gulf Coast from Louisiana to the Florida Panhandle as early as Friday morning. Areas farther inland across Mississippi and Alabama could experience these winds by Friday evening. Colors indicate the probability of sustained winds of at least 39 mph, with the highest probabilities concentrated along the storm's projected path.

Dangerous marine/beach conditions return. 🌊Expect a MODERATE risk of rip currents Wednesday increasing to HIGH Thursday into the weekend. Follow the advice of beach patrol & flags. 🚤Open Gulf waters will have winds of 15-20 kts and 3-6 ft waves, so small craft exercise caution.
Dangerous marine and beach conditions will return Wednesday. Surf will build to 3-5 feet along the coast with 4-6 foot offshore waves and 15-20 knot winds. The rip current risk increases to moderate on Wednesday and high from Thursday through the weekend for coastal Alabama and Northwest Florida beaches.
