Good morning, NBC News readers.
All eyes are on the downgraded, but still dangerous, Tropical Storm Elsa as it nears landfall along Florida's north Gulf Coast this morning. As the delta variant spreads, experts are urging the unvaccinated to act now. And the Haitian president was assassinated in an attack on his residence.
Here's what we're watching this Wednesday morning.
Elsa weakened to a tropical storm early Wednesday, hours before it was expected to make landfall on Florida's north Gulf coast, forecasters said.
Officials are warning of a possible life-threatening storm surge, predicting that Elsa could dump as much as 9 inches of rain in some areas and cause flooding.
The National Hurricane Center warned early Wednesday that the storm could bring "heavy rains and gusty winds" to western Florida.
While the storm is forecast to weaken as it moves inland and heads northeast, hurricane warnings remain in effect, according to the center.
