South Florida will see showers move in on Sunday as we watch activity in the very busy tropics. Our Sunday features showers and some storms moving in on a southwesterly breeze, with the greatest activity in northern parts of the area. Highs on Sunday will be near 90 degrees.
In the tropics, Florence is expected to regain hurricane strength on Sunday. At 5 am Sunday, Florence was located near 24.5 North, 55.8 West, and was moving west at 6 miles per hour. Maximum sustained winds were 70 miles per hour. Florence is likely to be a major hurricane as it approaches the Carolina coast, with a possible landfall early on Friday.
We’re also watching Tropical Storm Isaac (which was Tropical Depression # 9), which will move through the Lesser Antilles later in the week. At 5 am Sunday, Isaac was located near 14.5 North, 38.1 West, and was moving west at 9 miles per hour. Maximum sustained winds were 50 miles per hour. Computer models are not in agreement on Isaac’s long-range track, so we’ll watch this storm closely.
Elsewhere, Tropical Storm Helene is brushing the Cape Verde Islands. At 5 am Sunday, Helene was located near 13.2 North, 24.0 West, and was moving west at 14 miles per hour. Maximum sustained winds were 65 miles per hour. Helene is expected to remain in the central Atlantic. And the low pressure now near Bermuda has a low chance of developing into a tropical depression during the week ahead.
