Treacherous flood threats linger over Gulf Coast with potential tropical storm brewing over region
The risk of dangerous flooding continues along the Gulf Coast from a no-name storm system that could lead to days of an enhanced flood risk along and north of the Interstate 10 corridor. The system, identified as Invest 93L, originally developed east of Florida before traversing the entire state and ending up over Louisiana and Mississippi. Advertisement Due to its proximity to land and hostile upper-level winds over the Gulf, the disturbance never reached tropical depression or tropical storm status, despite producing conditions similar to a tropical cyclone – impacts that are expected to continue through the early weekend. Forecast models show communities between New Orleans and the Texas-Louisiana border could see an additional 2–4 inches of rainfall, with locally heavier amounts. In the stronger cells, an isolated waterspout or tornado is not out of the question, but the threat will remain concentrated over the southern parishes in Louisiana. Due to the rainfall threat, Flood Watches remain in effect along the I-10 corridor, as some rainfall rates could approach 1–2 inches per hour, which is enough to overwhelm drainage systems.

FOX Weather Forecasters remind residents that just 6 inches of moving water can knock an adult off their feet, while a foot of floodwater can cause a vehicle to stall and float away. Flood Watches have also been issued for parts of the Tennessee and Ohio valleys, where some of the moisture could stream northward towards, but the predominant feature responsible for that precipitation is a stalled frontal boundary. 3 A rain squall passes over the wetlands in southern Louisiana on August 30, 2021, in Houma, Louisiana.

AFP via Getty Images Could 93L develop into a tropical threat? Just because what has been known as 93L has moved inland, its future remains murky and may, in fact, find itself over open waters in roughly a week. Forecast models show the moisture and circulation within the disturbance meandering over the Southeast because of a building ridge over the northern U.S., essentially blocking its exit. This could send the disturbance back over the southwest Atlantic and northern Gulf – the same waters where it originated for a second chance of organization. Advertisement The National Hurricane Center has not highlighted the region yet for development, and the chances remain low that a cyclone will form either in the medium or long-term future, but it is a possibility that the FOX Forecast Center will be monitoring. A classic example of a circulation leaving the Gulf only to return as a cyclone is Hurricane Ivan back in 2004, but that system was a powerful hurricane – not a weak disturbance that struggled to even reach tropical depression status. A return to the Gulf would likely only result in heavy rainfall and rough surf – similar to the first go-around, but the forecast will continue to be fine-tuned during the upcoming days.

The best local restaurant in London has been crowned by the Good Food Guide
Congratulations to Ida in Queen's Park, which has been named the Best Local restaurant in London by the Good Food Guide. This is the 15th year of the GFG's Best Local Restaurants campaign, which sees the publication celebrate 100 cosy neighbourhood spots across the UK. According to the Good Food Guide, the list heralds 'wine bars serving sensational small plates, neighbourhood bistros breathing life into faded seaside towns, and the cherished family-run gems where you can enjoy a great meal for under £20'. The list is broken down into areas and Ida, a family-run Italian on Kilburn Lane, came up top in London. However, the overall number one was Malaysian pub residency Lucky Lychee in Winchester, which also topped the South East list. Ida opened in 2007, taking over a Grade II listed corner shop site. It is run by husband and wife, Avi and Simonetta, alongside their three children. 'The dream was to recreate the kind of simple, home-cooked Italian food you might eat at the house of your favourite aunt,' they say. The other London restaurants given the nod in the list included Time Out's current best restaurant in London, Miga in Hackney, as well as Clapton's Mambow, which topped our best restaurants list in 2024. See below for the full list of London restaurants named in the Best Local Restaurants campaign.

Bonnaroo announces 2026 festival after abrupt 2025 cancellation: Here's what to know
Bonnaroo is back. After extreme flooding caused a mid-festival cancellation of the 2025 music and arts event, organizers remained mum on new dates, fueling speculation that the festival might not happen in 2026. Those rumors were quashed this week, however, when organizers behind the four-day event in Tennessee announced Bonnaroo would return next year, running from June 11-14. After asking fans of the festival to complete surveys, organizers said in a July 17 Instagram post that they had taken in the feedback and planned the future of the festival accordingly. "We appreciate your feedback on future Bonnaroo dates, and we heard you loud and clear that your strong preference is to keep Bonnaroo in June," the announcement stated. Bonnaroo Music Festival canceled due to severe weather, flooding: Refunds and info What to expect from Bonnaroo 2026 The festival may look slightly different next year, however. Here's a rundown on the changes: In an email from Bonnaroo to The Tennessean, part of the USA TODAY NETWORK, organizers said after the festival was cancelled in 2021, due to Hurricane Ida, they consulted with drainage and land management experts to improve conditions on The Farm in the event of heavy, sustained rain. "We created a multimillion-dollar, multi-year plan and have been tackling projects post-festival each year," they said in the email. "These improvements have helped, but there is still more work to do. In the 2025/2026 off-season, we'll be dedicating an additional multimillion-dollar budget and initiating improvements that prioritize the campgrounds and other areas affected by the extreme weather in 2025." Organizers added: "Some of these projects will include reseeding the property, continuing to increase access roads within the campgrounds, adding more drainage and reinforcing primary water runoff pathways." Bonnaroo 2025 cancellation sparks controversy among fans On the heels of the 2025 cancellation, festival organizers initially revealed they would refund 75% of ticket costs to festival goers. That prompted a petition at by Kaitlyn Ziegler, calling on Live Nation — the festival's promoter — to issue 100% refunds for the cancellation instead of the 75% refunds that were promised. The festival later announced it would issue full refunds. Following Bonnaroo's announcement of its 2026 edition, fans' responses on social media were mixed. Some expressed frustration with the changes to entry times and stage locations, while others expressed gratitude toward organizers for not skipping a year.

Breathe easy, cinephiles: The AMC Lincoln Square is back open after that brutal flooding
Moviegoing is back! Or at least AMC's Lincoln Square cinema is, having quickly bounced back from a brief shutdown due to Monday night's downpour, which caused a roof pipe to burst, flooding the lower levels of the multi-story building. The Upper West Side movie theater reopened in time for screenings Tuesday evening and will continue operations as scheduled, with only some auditoriums and areas on the bottom floor closed for cleanup. Cinephiles can return to debating the latest summer blockbuster over M3GAN and Jaws themed popcorn buckets without further concern. New York City experienced the second-wettest hour of its recorded history (after Hurricane Ida in 2021), with 2.07 inches of rain falling between 7 and 8 p.m. As photos and videos of the storm poured into everyone's social media feeds, a widely shared video on TikTok showed a concessions counter at the Manhattan multiplex being badly beaten with water. Audiences had to be evacuated from the theater Monday night, though no one was injured. Located steps away from Lincoln Center, AMC's Lincoln Square theater houses one of the largest IMAX screens in the world—currently treating audiences to around 75 feet worth of David Corenswet in the latest Superman —as well as a Dolby Cinema auditorium. Both the IMAX and Dolby halls were undamaged, but a few of the other screens and areas in the lower levels of the cinema remain shut. Refunds were automatically issued by AMC to ticket-buyers affected by Monday and Tuesday's closure. A message which read, 'We apologize for the inconvenience, but this theatre is temporarily closed for unforeseen maintenance,'was briefly on the cinema's website.
