 We have a storm surge warning in effect for much of the coast of Texas from the north entrance of the South Padre Island National Seasore, now all the way over to Sabine Pass. It's not just the storm surge, Brennan added, it's also the rain. This is going to be a widespread heavy rainfall event with 5 to 10 inches of rainfall expected over a wide swath of the Gulf Coast, middle and upper Texas coast, and east Texas. As of right now, Barrel has sustained winds of 65 miles per hour.
