        <p>Southeast Louisiana, including New Orleans, is expected to get 4 to 8 inches of rain in coming days as moisture&nbsp;from <a href="https://topics.nola.com/tag/tropical%20storm%20harvey/">Tropical Storm Harvey</a>&nbsp;moves through the area. The city, which saw early waves of rainfall Monday and Tuesday morning (Aug. 29), is under a flash flood watch through Thursday.</p>
<p>Meteorologists in the New Orleans area are bracing for more rain as the week continues, though the heaviest rainfall is expected Tuesday.</p>
<p>In its latest forecast discussion, the National Weather Service estimates the New Orleans area will see a total of 2 to 3 inches Tuesday, with the possibility of "brief periods of intense rainfall" throughout the day and into evening.</p>
<p>Forecasters expect a "deep dry layer of air" could wrap itself into Harvey's rotation Wednesday before passing through southeast Louisiana, potentially limiting the amount of heavy rainfall the area sees tomorrow.</p>
<p>That "dry slot" of air is expected to decrease the risk of heavy rains through Thursday.</p>

<p>The latest information from the National Hurricane Center indicates Harvey should begin a slow turn to the northeast before making landfall again on the southwest Louisiana coast sometime Wednesday. Tropical storm watches and warnings are in effect for areas west of Grand Isle.</p>
<p>WWL-TV Meteorologist Alexandra Cranford expects New Orleans will see some rain tomorrow, but similarly pointed to dry air moving through Harvey's rotation that could make for a drier day on Wednesday.</p>

<p>Cranford noted the highest rainfall totals so far Tuesday have been west of New Orleans, in St. James, Gramercy and Vacherie, which have all seen more than 4 inches of rain.</p>
<p>A flash flood warning is in effect for Assumption, Lafourche, St. James, St. John the Baptist and Terrebonne parishes until 1:30 p.m.</p>

<p>WAFB Baton Rouge Meteorologist Steve Caparotta said off and on rains will continue throughout the day today in southeast Louisiana. He shared the graphic below on Twitter to show what will happen in the area over coming days. The orange represents the slot of dry air that will be moving with Harvey through the area.</p>
<p>If not for that air, Caparotta said rainfall in the Baton Rouge and New Orleans areas "would probably be considerably more widespread."</p>

<p>While southeast Louisiana watches the radar, the Houston area continues to deal with catastrophic flooding. Parts of Houston have already seen more than 40&nbsp;inches of rain, with 15 to 20 inches reported in surrounding areas. Areas southeast of Houston are expected to get another 10 to 15 inches of rain through Thursday morning.</p>
<p>Caparotta with WAFB noted models suggest another low could form in the Gulf of Mexico over the next week. Though its likely to be weak it could push more heavy rains back over hard hit areas of Texas and southwest Louisiana.</p>
