Tropical depression 16 is currently off the coast of central America and is expected to strengthen into a hurricane over the next 72 hours.

While it’s too early to predict exactly where the storm will come ashore, it’s expected to make its way through the Louisiana, Alabama and Mississippi corridor and through parts of Tennessee and Kentucky. Rain from this system should be expected late Sunday through Tuesday in central and eastern Kentucky.
