Three severe storms have been growing this week and are expected to make landfall by the weekend.

Tropical Depression Eight has been forming in the Gulf of Mexico and is expected to bring heavy rains to the western coast of Texas. Officials have issued storm warnings from Port Mansfield to High Island.




The tropical depression could become Tropical Storm Hanna if winds reach over 39 miles per hour. Residents fear the tropical depression will cause major flooding in parts of Central and South Texas.

In the Pacific Ocean, Hurricane Douglas has created winds of over 120 miles per hour and is moving west-northwest towards Hawaii. The storm is about 1,500 miles away from the Hawaiian Islands and officials have been monitoring the hurricane closely.

Douglas is expected to remain strong, bringing winds and heavy rains to the the islands by Sunday. Hawaii has been advised to remain on high alert until Monday.




In the Atlantic, the fate of Tropical Storm Gonzalo remains uncertain. Officials have predicted the tropical storm will turn into a hurricane before reaching the Caribbean on Saturday.

Authorities have warned the storm could lead to life-threatening flash floods on the Windward Islands if it reaches land.




Meteorologists have issued weather advisories in the all affected areas for the remainder of the week.
