The First Warning Storm Team is tracking a wonderful weekend!

High pressure will remain in place keeping us nice and dry through the weekend. Jose is now a post-tropical cyclone, but will still be giving us some rough surf and tidal flooding. Dangerous rip currents will still be an issue today. Plenty of sunshine today, with highs in the low and mid 80s.

We’ll continue to see dry conditions this weekend, with highs in the low and mid 80s, which is a bit above normal for this time of year. It’s shaping up to be a great weekend for outdoor activities!

Clouds and rain chances will increase on Monday. Giving it a 20 percent chance for showers now. Hurricane Maria is expected to track between the Bahamas and Bermuda early next week. Right now, Maria will pass to our east. Some potential impacts will be strong rip currents, rough surf and flooding. Keeping a slight chance for some showers from Maria Tuesday and Wednesday. Conditions look to improve for Thursday.
