.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 203 PM EDT Mon Sep 29 2025
Tropical Storm Imelda continues to spin over the Bahamas this
afternoon. NHC expects the storm to make a sharp eastward turn
sometime between today and tomorrow. This will allow more dry air to
filter into the area as it wraps around the backside of Imelda. This
morning`s sounding already showing a bit of dry air in the mid and
upper levels. The dry air will limit rain chances through Wednesday.
However, a few isolated to scattered showers could work their way
over from the NE heading SW, though likely will not make it all the
way to the coast.
Thursday into Friday an upper level trough coupled with a surface
boundary will push into the area bringing some extra moisture. Rain
chances with increases as well as the east to northeast winds as the
pressure gradient tightens up. This pattern hangs around through
the weekend as the boundary lingers over FL.
