Friday 5 am Tropical Update: Invest 90 fuel tropical rains in the Gulf
SUMMARY: Coastal areas may experience minor flooding on low-lying roads, but conditions should improve by early next week. Although water levels may remain elevated over the weekend, moisture is expected to move southward and then shift northwest before being drawn back northward next week. This could lead to increased rain chances, particularly heavy rainfall expected today and into tomorrow morning. Sunday appears to be a nicer day, while next week brings a forecast of scattered storms. Overall, monitoring of moisture patterns and potential rain events will be crucial in the coming days.

Only the most minor of relief from heat as we head into the weekend

A low-pressure system from the Four Corners may slightly shift the heat by Sunday, leading to a minor temperature drop. However, temperatures will still be in the upper 90s with heat index values surpassing 100ยฐF by Sunday, coinciding with the Equinox at 7:44 AM. While there may be a slight change in temperature, significant relief from the heat is not expected.
