Today will be partly cloudy, followed by rain returning for the weekend

Let’s talk Tropics as we start this Thursday morning. Kirk has developed into a Major Hurricane, and will stay out at sea with the impacts for us being rip currents. The same goes for Tropical Storm Leslie. Both are talkers, and we will continue to track them and update you on the rip current risk day by day.

The National Hurricane Center has brought down the chances of development for the low pressure system in the Gulf (30% chance of development in the next 7 days), but either way, a stalled cold front moving in, coupled with that area low will bring rain into this weekend and next week.

Locally, we’re looking at a partly cloudy day, with highs in the 80′s. As the rain moves in this weekend and next week our temperatures cool down a bit.

We’re in October, but it doesn’t feel like it!
