SUMMARY: Meteorologist Grant Skinner from the Storm Team discusses the tropics, noting Tropical Storm Gordon poses no threat to the U.S. as it meanders in the Atlantic. Another area near Georgia and the Carolinas has a medium chance of development, potentially bringing rain and gusty winds to the East Coast. There’s notable fog in the area due to humidity and calm winds, leading to a caution for drivers. Rain chances will increase from Sunday through Tuesday with a risk of isolated flash flooding in northern areas. Temperatures are expected to be in the upper 80s to low 90s today, cooling slightly next week.

We start this morning with partly cloudy skies and mild temperatures at around 70 degrees. The morning should be quiet, and we will gradually warm to around 90 degrees by the afternoon. Isolated showers and a couple of storms are possible during the afternoon and evening thanks to an area of low pressure to our north and west that was Francine. The majority of the showers and storms will be in the northern and central portions of Alabama. As this low moves south into Sunday, a few more storms are possible, but they will still be hit or miss. Highs will sit in the mid-80’s. Isolated storm chances continue through Tuesday as the low and an associated front slowly dive south. Once they both move offshore by the middle of the week, we will have drier conditions across the area. Highs will sit in the mid-80’s through the middle of the week before warming up next weekend. In the tropics, we continue to track Gordon and one other area. Gordon is a tropical storm 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. It could form subtropical characteristics or become a depression before pushing inland, but regardless it will bring windy conditions to that area as well as rough surf and downpours. It also does not pose a threat.
