Storm Team 3: More rain with below-average highs
Share this @internewscast.com

Hi, hi – Storm Team 3 Meteorologist Alysa Carsley here – let’s have a fabulous Tuesday!

Keep your umbrella handy all week, as we’re still monitoring the stalled front stretching across the Southeast and into the Gulf. This front will usher in Gulf moisture, resulting in additional rounds of scattered storms over the coming days. Expect heavy rain at times.

Flooding continues to pose a risk in areas with poor drainage because the ground is saturated from recent heavy rain. Rainfall totals could reach up to 2-3 inches by the week’s end, with potential for higher amounts during slower-moving storms. The rain is primarily expected in the afternoons and evenings each day. Temperatures will stay in the upper 80s to lower 90s daily.

Looking ahead to this weekend, a coastal low might travel up our coast. This could lead to increased rain chances over the weekend and a risk of rip currents. As of Tuesday, it’s not anticipated to be a complete washout, but scattered showers are expected on both weekend days.

THE TROPICS 

  • Tropical Storm Dexter is a weak tropical storm with max sustained winds of 40 mph. It continues to track to the northeast and will remain a fish storm as it pulls farther away from the East Coast. 
  • The National Hurricane Center is monitoring two areas of possible development.
    • One will be the coastal low that will impact our weekend weather. This area has a 40% (medium) chance of development as it gradually drifts west towards the East Coast. A tropical depression is possible by the end of the week. Impacts: higher rain chance for us, breezy winds, elevated tides and coastal issues like rip currents and some beach erosion. We will keep an eye on this.
    • The other is a tropical wave moving off the coast of Africa. It has a 50% (medium) chance of development as it travels into the central Atlantic Ocean. A tropical depression or tropical storm is possible late this week or into the weekend.
