Saturday features a mix of sun and clouds, with periods of showers and storms in the East Coast metro area and the Keys. The Gulf Coast will see more clouds than sun and lots of showers. Expect an elevated risk of dangerous rip currents at the Atlantic beaches. Highs on Saturday will be in the low 90s in the East Coast metro area and the Keys and near 90 degrees along the Gulf Coast.
Sunday will bring lots of morning sun and a few afternoon showers and storms to the East Coast metro area. The Gulf Coast will be mostly sunny with a few showers and storms. Sunday’s highs will be mostly in the low 90s.

Helene is weakening and losing its tropical characteristics, but it has not lost its ability to cause devastation. It is forecast to linger over Kentucky and Tennessee on Saturday and will continue to drop flooding rains over much of the southeastern U.S.
Elsewhere, Hurricane Isaac is moving rapidly in the northern Atlantic, far from land. Isaac will weaken on Sunday and become an extra-tropical cyclone early next week. The area of low pressure in the central Atlantic is now Tropical Storm Joyce. Joyce is forecast to turn northward and weaken in the middle of the Atlantic early next week. In the eastern Atlantic, an area of low pressure could form in a few days. Computer models suggest this feature will follow in Joyce’s path as it makes its way northwestward.
Finally, computer models indicate a low could form in the western Caribbean by the middle of next week. This feature is likely to end up in the Gulf of Mexico — and we’ll keep a close eye on it.
