Gulf Coast 7 - Day Forecast 8/23 - 8/29.

Overall:

Wet and muggy conditions will eventually give way to a brief “Fake Fall” feeling early next week with lower humidity. Showers and storms return by late next week.

🌀 Tropical Outlook

• Tropical Wave (AL90) – about 250 miles NE of the northern Leeward Islands. Could develop into a Depression or Storm and possibly threaten Bermuda. Watches/warnings may be issued this weekend.

• Tropical Wave (AL99) – midway between Africa & the Windward Islands. Disorganized now, but could strengthen slightly early next week as it nears the Caribbean. We’ll be watching closely for any Gulf impact late next week.
