Tuesday’s forecast includes a bit of sun, lots of clouds, and periods of showers and storms.  Highs on Tuesday will be mostly in the mid 80s.

In the tropics, Tropical Depression Cristobal continues to bring life-threatening flooding to portions of Mexico.  At 5 am Friday, Cristobal was located near 18.8 North, 90.1 West, and was moving north-northeast at 7 miles per hour.  Maximum sustained winds were 35 miles per hour.  Cristobal is forecast to move northward into the Gulf of Mexico later on Friday and regain tropical storm status.  Landfall along the northern U.S. Gulf coast is expected late Sunday or early Monday.  Since Cristobal is not well organized, its moisture field is very large, and we’ll be receiving rain from this system through the weekend.
