After the heavy rain over the weekend we will see drier weather for much of the week. Many areas along the coast had 5-10” of rain this past weekend. There were many reports of flooded roads. The good news is we will have a dry day for your Labor Day. For today, a mix of sun and clouds, and the high will be near 88. Tonight we’ll have mostly clear skies with lows near 68. Tuesday through Friday we’ll have lots of sun with warm temperatures. The highs for much of the week will be near 90. Have a good Labor Day!!
Tropics:
Hurricane Felix:
Felix is a powerful category five in the Caribbean Sea. The maximum sustained winds are 165 mph. Felix is quickly moving off to the west at 21 mph. I don’t see Felix turning to the north and affecting the United States. There is a ridge of high pressure that will block Felix and keep the storm mainly on a westerly track through the next five days.
The low that brought our area rain this past weekend will have a chance to develop into a tropical system by the middle of the week. Most of the computer models have the low moving away from the southeast coast.
