Synopsis:
A tropical disturbance on the North Carolina coast will move up and along the coast through today and tonight. The system may become a tropical storm. Whether it becomes classified as a storm or not clouds and a shield of rain will work into parts of the trip-state area today. The big question is how far inland does the rain work? It looks as though areas from the I-95 corridor and to the coast will see the best chance of rain. The chances of seeing anything significant will decrease to the North and West. It’ll be significantly cooler today with the wind off the ocean.
The system will pull of the coast later tonight and early Wednesday morning. Coastal rain will continue overnight and end very early Wednesday morning to the East. The sun will return and it’ll be a fine day.
The days of August look spectacular. September’s debut on Friday will be much cooler as we turn the calendar page.
Tropical Storm Harvey continues to meander along the central Texas coast. Historic flooding is and will continue to occur for Texas and parts of Louisiana. Some areas may receive in excess of 50″+ of rain.
