(CNN)Tropical Storm Gordon formed in the Florida Keys on Monday morning and is forecast to strengthen over the next 48 hours as it brings strong winds and heavy rain to the Gulf of Mexico, the National Hurricane Center said.

Gordon is already lashing south Florida with rain and tropical-storm-force winds. A hurricane watch is in place for the Mississippi and Alabama coasts, including the cities of Gulfport, Biloxi, and Mobile.

The storm will gather strength as it heads through the Gulf of Mexico and be at or near hurricane force as it makes landfall Tuesday night along the Mississippi or Alabama coast, the hurricane center said.

As of midday Monday, nearly 2 million people were under hurricane watches and storm surge warnings, and over 13 million people were under tropical storm warnings.

I guess the moron will have to order his staff to get him some paper towels as hurricane relief.
