Thursday features a mix of sun and clouds with periods of showers and storms throughout the day. The Gulf coast will see a gusty breeze. A high risk of dangerous rip currents remains at the beaches of Collier and Palm Beach counties, and there’s a moderate rip current risk at the Broward and Miami-Dade beaches. A heat advisory is in place until Thursday evening for all of mainland South Florida — so stay hydrated and out of the sun. Highs on Thursday will be mostly in the mid-90s in the East Coast metro area and in the low 90s along the Gulf Coast and in the Keys.
Friday will bring mostly sunny skies with some storms in the morning. Showers will move in during the afternoon along the Gulf Coast, while the east coast metro area will see plenty of afternoon storms. Friday’s highs will be mostly in the mid-90s.
Saturday will feature a mix of sun, clouds, and a few morning storms. Look for more storms in the afternoon and evening in the east coast metro area and lots of afternoon and evening showers along the Gulf Coast. Saturday’s highs will be in the low 90s.
Sunday will see plenty of sun, a few clouds at times, and a shower or two in spots. Sunday’s highs will be in the low 90s.
The forecast for Labor Day calls for lots of sun with a few showers and storms at times. Highs on Monday will be in the low 90s.
As northern Florida continues to access the damage, now Tropical Storm Idalia has emerged into the Atlantic off the North Carolina coast. Idalia is forecast to slow down on Friday and turn to the northeast by Sunday, coming near or over Bermuda on Sunday into Monday.
Hurricane Franklin is on its way into open waters after bringing tropical storm conditions to Bermuda on Wednesday. Franklin is forecast to turn gradually to the northeast and weaken over colder waters. But swells from this system continue to affect the entire U.S. Atlantic coast, bringing dangerous surf conditions and potentially deadly rip currents.
Tropical Depression # 11 is now Tropical Storm Jose. Jose is wandering slowly in the middle of the Atlantic, and it’s forecast to weaken quickly and dissipate in the next couple of days.
Elsewhere, the remnants of Gert have a very low chance of regenerating in the open Atlantic. The wave in the eastern Atlantic near the Cabo Verde Islands has a high chance of becoming a depression as it moves to the northwest. This system is expected to pose no threat to North America.
