SUMMARY: Alexa reports that there are currently no tropical concerns for the Gulf Coast. Tropical storm Naan is moving inland and weakening, bringing rain to southern Mexico, while Hurricane Oscar, a small but powerful category one storm, is impacting the Bahamas and Cuba. Fortunately, the continental U.S. will remain free from any tropical threats for at least the next 10 days. Locally, pleasant weather continues with temperatures in the 60s to 70s, ensuring a dry week ahead. A warming trend is expected, reaching the 80s by Monday, with no rain forecasted for the next seven days.

Meteorologist Alexa Trischler says enjoy a delightful stretch of quiet weather with mostly sunny skies. Expect temperatures to increase next week.
