hurricane which for all concerned along the gulf is not good news. i thought we would talking about, that still has the chance to pick up this storm and turned it to the east and bring it to florida instead of texas. obviously, all at interests in florida could face a hurricane. everyone needs to pay close attention. you can see they are all over the place. if.com strong enough and fast enough, it will turn the storm to the east and not take it to the west. for us at home, we don't have those concerns. we see advisories go into effect tonight as those winds start to pick up with that approach in front. today a beautiful one. 89 degrees for the hide. tonight we will start to drop into the 60s. a chance for a couple showers are under stones as that approach. scattered showers and thunderstorms are a possibility. look at the swinging temperatures. only 84 the high on tuesday,

a close-up coming through. that comes through tonight through tomorrow. something else, down here in the tropics is tropical storm debby. it's pretty far away from us but there's a lot of questions with this storm. as we put it in motion, it slowly drifting to the north and northwest. the official forecast takes it off to the west and increases it to a hurricane before making landfall in the united states somewhere. the reason i say somewhere is because there's a lot of questions on where this storm is going. even though this is the official forecast, look at the forecast models. they still take it to the north and east. the reason for that, the front we were just talking about coming our way. it comes strong enough and fast enough and picks up a storm and turns it to the east. instead of affecting texas and western parts of the gulf, this thing is going toward florida. that's why there's still a lot of concerns. some of the moisture may move off to the north. that's why we say there are a

lot of questions going on with the store and edit could factor into our forecast. for us but one thing we know is today is pretty nice. clouds mixing later today. chancellor for showers and thunderstorms. that front goes out of here. we called on tuesday and wednesday, and after that is when we see some major questions around here. small craft a visor is in effect starting tonight. today close to 90 degrees. we've got a warm one. chance for a few showers or thunderstorms starting tonight into the day tomorrow with a front coming through. after that we cool it down very nicely for the middle part of the week. however, it's just a break because the heat will return as we head toward the second half of the week. again, a lot of this forecast is going to depend on what happens off to the south. even though we are not talking about debbie coming here, it can really mess up the pattern going on. so a front that may be coming our way could get stalled or move

faster or stop the entire weather pattern. a lot of this is dependent on what happens with debbie. we will keep you updated. >> we will be affected. >> yes. >> still to come, get out of the kitchen. it's perfect grilling weather. before the guests arrive, you need to know a few things. we have home depot experts in the studio. >> and more than 3700 women are in the process of finishing the baltimore women's classic. it's a race for a great cause with with some great people here. ,,,,,,,, [ male announcer ] are you paying more
