10PM Sunday Update: Marco weakens to a tropical storm, Laura strengthens

Marco weakened to a tropical storm Sunday night as it faced wind shear and dry air in the central-northern Gulf of Mexico. Winds decreased to 70 mph, and it is forecast to stay a tropical storm as it skirts the Louisiana coastline on Monday.

It is still expected to bring storm surge and tropical storm force winds to Louisiana on Monday.

Meanwhile, Tropical Storm Laura has knocked utilities out as it battered Hispaniola, following a track forecast to take it to the same part of the U.S. coast later in the week, also as a hurricane.
