hate been strengthening today. it might get right up to that area of 74 mile per hour winds. certainly much more organized today than what we saw yesterday. it is just starting it's move. we will lift it up to the florida panhandle. here is a look at the track. over the start of this track, as it moves up across florida late tomorrow night, across southeast georgia and then heading up towards the carolinas that part is high confidence. a re that is where the storm will go. we will see heavy rainfall and some strong winds as well as storm surge. once it gets up into our neck of the woods things become trickier. what that will do is stall this system just off to our south. all the impact really revolves around where exactly this system is going to stall. so if you look at the big picture, ridge of high pressure builds over the northeast. that ridge stops the storm from being able to escape out to sea.

england. it may sit here for several days. so where it stops is going to -- determine where that rain comes. some key takeaways i don't think it will be a very powerful damaging storm for us. that does not look like the case right now. i also think the further north you go, you will probably never have a single issue here is a look at our labor day forecast. on friday and saturday we are dry. some clouds are start town crease on saturday. sunday is where that rain tries to move a little farther north and lift up into southern new england. we are watching where that band will set up. our highest chance of rainfall will come monday. i know the timing is not what any of us want but we want it to get a little bit farther north
