news" as hermine has upped the eastern seaboard, take a look, atlantic beach north carolina where heavy rain flooded streets and strong winds, created a rush of surf on the atlantic ocean, created a dangerous storm surge. national hurricane center warning everyone on the east coast up and down to monitor reports on hermine. justin, you say you have been tracking this for quite some time. what's interesting, it was downgrade from the hurricane, but looks like it may turn back into a hurricane? >> right. >> this storm has been sitting out over the water, the last few weeks, waiting for it to form, never it, finally formed in the gulf, turned into the hurricane, weakens to tropical storm. as it moves back out to sea it, will lose its tropical characteristics, but the strength of it still strong. actually may re strengthen little bit. once it moves off the coast, kind of like strong nor'easter, even though not true tropical system probably in the next couple of days. >> dangerous nonetheless. >> yes, a loft flooding going on, coastal flooding, tidal

flooding, beach errosion, main impacts down the shore. not so much here in the city. we take you outside right now, like i said, today probably the best day anywhere. specially at the shore right now, if you are down there, get it in now. enjoy the morning, things will go downhill quickly later this afternoon into tonight. over center sit, just had some high clouds right now, actually see little sunshine around this morning, temperatures, pretty pleasant, we're in the 60s right now, and they will be stuck in the 70s today. but check out storm scan3, there is hermine, winds 60-mile per hour, clockwise tropical storm, still has tropical characteristics, heavy rain, hampton road tide water area, nor folks virginia, a lot of storm sinker there, and the rain trying to get up toward ocean city maryland right now, casino every cut off. the drier air in place. and that's what's going to help keep the storm little bit south and east of philadelphia. but, still, slowing it down, as it moves off shore. right now, moving at about 21 miles per hour, that's pretty quickly. again, stalling off, and

that's just going to pounds the coastline with persistent north to northeast winds, that will help pile up the water at least through labor day. and as slow improvement next week. not much going to be happening up toward the poconos, lehigh valley, you will get some clouds out of this, looks like you do stay rain free, that's good news there if you live north and west of the city. not going to feel the effect from the system whole lot at all. sixty-two allentown, 69 in philadelphia. low 70s, wildwood, and atlantic city airport, like i said, should feel little sunshine this morning, here at the jersey shore, and temperatures, little closer to here, 74 barnegat, ocean water at 75 degrees, rehoboth checking in at 74. winds speeds increasing through the afternoon. so these are sustained winds, could get up to around 30 by early mid, laid afternoon, little less toward inland spots, 15 to maybe 20 miles per hour. and then, those wind speeds then continue 20, 30, 40 miles per hour, gust to go maybe 60,

depending on how strong this storm gets. and how close it is to the coastline. tropical storm warnings, for all of coastal new jersey, even up the delaware bay, southern new jersey including salem county, cumberland county, all of delaware, again, potential for tropical storm force winds, 39 miles per hour or higher. certainly see potential for heavy rain, again, immediate shore line pounded by the win, so coastal flooding. so later today, winds start to increase, gusting 40, eventually height of it, 60 miles per hour, probably during the day sunday into sunday night. so major coastal flooding possible around times of high tide. specially starting later tournament also, coming off new moon phase, higher than normal high tides, rough surf, eight up to 12 feet over the next few days, so obviously dangerous rip current. look at the gusts this afternoon, gusting over 40 miles per hour close to six off through the overnight into monday, then finally tuesday winds start to back off little

bit. then notice the direction, out of the northwest. that will help push the water back out to sea, as the storm exit. like i said, storms moving right now 21 miles per hour, but kind of slows down. this is sunday morning, then this is wednesday. there is not much movement here off the east coast. so again it kind of lingers. so expect clouds around. this is something interesting. check out this model. notice the rain. it is barely gets into south jersey. and we'll see decent amount of sunshine if this model verifies later today, even into sunday. but that's just one model. i do think we'll get the rain across southern new jersey, delaware, and potential for two, 3 inches every rain across extreme southern delaware, lesser amounts the farther west you go. may not be much rain at all here around is the it i. so today some sunshine, breezy, 78, rain develops tonight, especially south and east of the city, city could stay dry tonight, mostly cloudy. check out the extended forecast. headed into labor day, unsettled, breezy, showers around possible, finally tuesday we start to clear things out, but by the end of
