Storm Team 3: Tracking higher rain chances and coastal flooding
Share this @internewscast.com

SAVANNAH, Ga. () — Breezy conditions continue into Sunday as we are tracking rain chances and coastal flooding at each high tide.

Saturday concluded with mostly dry conditions, as rain chances were limited to only brief showers. Breezy east-northeasterly winds persisted throughout the day, and this, coupled with astronomical high tides, has led to concerns about coastal flooding.

A Coastal Flood Advisory is anticipated to be in effect within two hours of each high tide for the coming days. This weekend’s tides are expected to cause about half a foot of saltwater inundation. Tides could be even higher on Monday and particularly on Tuesday with the full moon, but based on the forecast at Fort Pulaski, significant flooding is not expected.

An unsettled weather pattern extending from parts of the Northern Gulf Coast to Florida, featuring a few weak low-pressure areas, will increase our rain chances on Sunday and Monday. Scattered to numerous showers are expected at times from the pre-dawn hours of Sunday morning until early afternoon. The weather will become drier by the afternoon, but no part of the day will see continuous rainfall. Scattered showers are expected at times on Monday before high pressure takes over in the middle of the week.

In the tropics, there is a developing low-pressure area located well south of the Cabo Verde Islands. This system has a 60% chance of becoming a depression or named storm over the next week. Conditions support slow development from the middle to the end of the week. Long-range guidance is aligning on this system’s track, which is expected to take it north of the Leeward Islands. 

There is plenty of time to monitor for changes, but there are currently no imminent tropical threats to the Coastal Empire and Lowcountry.
