Detailed Forecast

Synopsis: Tropical storm conditions will continue over our offshore waters this morning, with periods of tropical storm conditions possible near shore as outer rain bands associated with Isaias increase in frequency this morning. Isaias will approach the Carolina coast this evening, with winds over our local waters shifting to westerly with decreasing speeds and gradually subsiding seas. Atlantic ridging will then build back over our local waters by midweek, with its axis extending across the Florida peninsula that will result prevailing southerly winds.
