It would be the first time two hurricanes appear in the Gulf of Mexico simultaneously, according to records dating to at least 1900PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti—Tropical Storm Marco is swirling over the Gulf of Mexico heading for a possible hit on the Louisiana coast as a hurricane, while Tropical Storm Laura knocked utilities out as it battered Hispaniola early Sunday, following a track forecast to take it to the same part of the U.S. coast, also as a hurricane.
Haitian civil protection officials said they had received reports that a 10-year-old had died when a tree fell on a home in the southern coastal town of Anse-a-Pitres, on the border with the Dominican Republic. It was the first reported death from the storm. A hurricane watch was issued for the New Orleans metro area, which Hurricane Katrina pummeled in August 2005.
The projected tracks from the U.S. National Hurricane Center late Saturday pointed to both storms being together in the Gulf on Monday, with Marco hitting Louisiana’s coast around midday and Laura making landfall in the same general area Wednesday. But there was still much uncertainty surrounding the forecasts for the two storms.
