A disorganized cluster of showers/storms is approaching the Bahamas and will move right overhead Friday. This will bring more beneficial rain (up to 1-1.5″ along the coast), gusty winds (up to 40 mph) and rough beach weather (5-7 ft. breakers) through Friday.
Any further development into something tropical is not expected but we are watching it.
