Isaías still crawling 40 miles east of Cape Canaveral, coastal intense conditions expected in overnight

Tropical Storm Isaias continues to move slowly north-northwest at 9 mph. Located about 55 miles from Cape Canaveral, Isaías will continue to bring tropical storm gusts to coastal counties. But sustained tropical storm-force winds will remain out over sea. In fact, the strongest winds and storms will continue east of the storm, well away from Florida.

The windier conditions will persist for the next few hours before Isaías begins to move faster northward and make a slight turn north-northeast. Winds are expected to pick up over the South Carolina coast. The storm is expected to make landfall early Tuesday morning near the South Carolina-North Carolina border.

For Florida, some rain bands will pass through the early hours, mostly moving from northeast to southwest. By Monday, some rain and the breeze will be from west to east, ensuring fairly warm temperatures. We will return to the typical summer pattern starting on Tuesday, with the wind remaining from the west.

Isaías’ track shifts farther from Florida’s east coast; here’s what to expect locally

Isaias continues to be a disorganized system. Even though it tried to strengthen overnight, the wind shear and dry air has really taken a toll on this system, preventing it from intensifying back to hurricane status.

The 11 a.m. track from the National Hurricane Center places Isaías a bit farther east, away from Central Florida’s coastline. Had it stayed closer to the coast, there would have been more storm surge and erosion.

The coast is still expected to be battered by strong winds and up to 3 feet of storm surge.

Heavy rain bands will continue to sweep across Central Florida just like they had earlier Sunday.

Expect a breezy Sunday and Monday inland as Isaias parallels the coast.

Stronger gusts and rain bands are also possible inland, bringing 1 to 3 inches of rain.
