Tropical Storm Isaac has dumped more rain onto an already saturated Gulf Coast as residents sought safety from flooding and officials warned of tornadoes and life-threatening storm surges. The National Hurricane Center said the slow-moving mass of fierce weather, which was downgraded from a hurricane to a tropical storm a day earlier, would weaken and move north but continue to produce heavy rain for two days.
