SUMMARY: Meteorologist Aldos Grant Skinner from the News 5 First Alert Storm Team provides an update on Potential Tropical Cyclone 8 as of September 15. A tropical storm warning is in effect for parts of the Carolinas, where maximum winds are at 45 mph, moving northwest. The system is expected to move inland by tomorrow, causing rough surf, gusty winds, and isolated flash flooding across the region. A level 2 risk for flash flooding has been issued for many areas, with rainfall totals of 2-7 inches possible. Additionally, Tropical Depression Gordon is weakening and poses no threat to the U.S. or Gulf Coast.
Meteorologist Grant Skinner gives an update on the tropical activity in the Atlantic Basin. The News 5 First Alert Storm Team is tracking Gordon and Potential Tropical Cyclone Eight. Gordon is a tropical depression now and is several hundred miles east of the Windward and Leeward Islands. It will see fluctuations in strength and will eventually move north. It does not pose a threat to our area. The other area to watch is off the coast of GA and the Carolinas, and it is now Potential Tropical Cyclone Eight. It is expected to bring heavy rainfall leading to the possibility of flooding especially closer to the coast, and gusty winds and rough surf are likely along the portions of the east coast. It also does not pose a threat to the News 5 area or the Gulf Coast.
