harv: a fringe effect seems a likely scenario for part of the week, that's the best estimate i have at this particular time. it's way down to the gulf of mexico. it's just become a tropical storm. the highest winds 459 miles per hour. the greater impact is likely to be felt around the upper florida coast. that's because you're going to get a storm surge down there. heavy rain and the gusty winds. it will probably be a strong tropical storm or a minimal hurricane when it makes landfall. then it's over land for a while so it ob but it will still have a tremendous amount of moisture. it will make a somewhat closer path to us later on in the holiday weekend but notice it may get to about this position and may struggle to get any further north. so will it be close enough to give some appreciable rain and some gusty if not strong winds to part of the area? >> the rain chances probably pick up on sunday and continue into monday, at left a medium chance. as for a gusty or strong winds, a medium chance sunday and monday, south coast and the cape

it's gotten muggy, you probably noticed that we certainly had hotter days than this, this summer, but it's now back to being somewhat uncomfortable and it will stay that way overnight into tomorrow. as we wait. the front is in this position. how you can tell? here's all the muggy air, and this is the comfortable air that will spread over the region friday and stay with us through saturday. we've had a few spritzes here or there moving offshore. we do see some showers now approaching the hartford new york board. that's this chunk of moisture. that's actually further west. the first chunk is right out in here. but that extends all the way back to northern p.a. and southwest p.a. and eastern ohio. also, we're seeing a strip of showers not only there, but also to the north. that's with an approaching cold front so between all of this, there are many gaps in between with no moisture, does give chauns of getting a couple of downpours or thunderstorms in part of the area, a couple of

hour winds. it still has some real estate in the golf, very warm water, to intensify some. so it will probably be a stronger tropical storm or maybe even a minimal hurricane, when it makes landfall along the upper florida coast. there are tropical storm warnings and hurricane watches for that area. after that it probably tracks over land. a lot of moisture is all along this track. as we get to sunday and monday, thhe nontropical in nature, or partially nontropical, will reemerge off the coast but how close it will get to us? possibly close enough to get some gusty winds and some wet weather into southern new england with connecticut, rhode island, and the cape, south coast being the closest, probably getting more effects than the rest of us. as we ge out in time there could be gusts at 25 miles per hour. worcester to boston. it could be a little greater
