The development of Tropical Storm
Edouard can be traced back from a
surface trough of low pressure
that persisted across the Northeast Gulf of Mexico just south of
the Florida Panhandle beginning on August 2nd. Overnight into
the morning of August 3rd, the eastern portion of the trough
closed off into a weak low pressure system. The low increased in
organization by the afternoon, and was named Edouard by late
afternoon when Aircraft Reconnaissance found winds over tropical
storm force.
Edouard initially moved slowly westward around 5 mph on August
3rd and 4th, but sped up to over 10 mph the 12 hours before
landfall near Sea Rim State Park, TX around 7 AM CDT August 5th
as a 65 mph tropical storm.
