Looking ahead, slightly drier conditions are expected Tuesday with more sunshine, though a few showers remain in the forecast for the rest of the week. Coastal areas will continue to see rough seas, with a high risk of rip currents.

In the tropics, Tropical Depression Gordon, located in the far open Atlantic, poses no threat to land. However, a disturbance offshore South Carolina could briefly develop into a tropical depression or storm before moving inland later today.
