 Welcome back. This is America in the Morning. Whether a hurricane or tropical storm, Barrel sure has had its impact. Here's AccuWeather.com meteorologist Matt Rindy with an update. Barrel is the first landfalling tropical system of this season in the U.S., having recently made landfall along the Texas coast near East Matagorda Bay. As Barrel continues inland, there will be significant impacts throughout the day with heavy rain, a strong storm surge, damaging winds, and even the risk for a tornado.
