 Barrels crossed Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula. National Hurricane Center Director Michael Brennan says a hurricane watch has now been posted for a large area of coastal Texas from the Rio Grande River to Sargent, Texas. We have the center right now moving along the lower and middle Texas coast. If the center moves a little farther to the right, we could see landfall appear along the middle Texas coast, a little farther to the left, down closer near the mouth of the Rio Grande. And that's exactly why that hurricane watch and storm surge watch has been issued for such that broad area.
