    hours.

    Key messages for Tropical Depression Edouard can be found in the
    Tropical Cyclone Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDAT5 and WMO
    header WTNT45 KNHC.

    WIND: Wind gusts of 35 to 45 mph may continue near the
    center of Edouard for the next several hours.

    range from 5 to 10 inches, with maximum totals up to 20 inches for
    inland areas away from the Upper Texas Coast through east-central

    in low-lying and urban areas. Significant flash flooding is
    increasingly likely over the Piney Woods area of southeast Texas.
    River flooding may also be possible.

    Across Southwest Louisiana, total rainfall from Edouard will range
