Monday will bring clouds and a bit of sun in the morning, windy conditions, and plenty of showers and storms in the afternoon as a front moves through. An elevated risk of dangerous rip currents is in place at the Atlantic coast. Monday’s highs will be in the upper 80s.
Tuesday will be breezy and mostly sunny on the first day of fall. Look for a few stray showers in the east coast metro area. Tuesday’s highs will be in the mid to upper 80s.

In the tropics, Tropical Storm Beta is moving toward the Texas coast, and a tropical storm warning is in effect from there into coastal Louisiana. At 5 am Sunday, Beta was located near 22.0 North, 92.7 West, about 330 miles southeast of Galveston, Texas. Maximum sustained winds were 60 miles per hour. Beta was moving west-northwest at 3 miles per hour. Portions of Texas and Louisiana can expect tropical storm force winds and heavy rain, beginning later on Sunday and lasting into Tuesday.
Hurricane Teddy is making its closest approach to Bermuda on Sunday, and a tropical storm warning is in effect there. At 5 am, Teddy was located near 28.0 North, 62.0 West, about 340 miles south-southeast of Bermuda. Maximum sustained winds were 115 miles per hour, and Teddy was moving northwest at 12 miles per hour. Swells from this large hurricane will affect much of the east coast of the U.S., including here in South Florida.
A low off the central Florida coast is interacting with the front which will reach us tomorrow. The low will be ashore on Sunday morning, but it does have gale force winds — so the National Hurricane Center is giving this feature a low chance of developing into a depression.
Elsewhere, Tropical Storm Wilfred is having a bad day in the open Atlantic. At 5 am, Wilfred was located near 15.0 North 42.0 West, and was moving west-northwest at 16 miles per hour. Wilfred is forecast to weaken quickly and dissipate by Tuesday. And Extratropical Cyclone Paulette is stalling out south of the Azores and has a medium chance of regaining some tropical characteristics during the next few days.
