If it's the final weekend of the Summer for you, Mother Nature doesn't seem to want to cooperate. From rip current risks at the beaches from Ernesto, to rain chances, hazardous weather is possible for many. This is the same system that brought severe weather to the Plains and Midwest earlier in the week. The area of low-pressure responsible will move through the Great Lakes on Friday and into New England on Saturday.

Humidity levels have been creeping higher since Saturday and we are going to be back in the soup for today as well as the week ahead. We will also be dealing with a series of waves moving around the Bermuda high. It is building into the Southeastern US. A southwest flow aloft is bringing up ripples in the flow. It will not be raining all the time but there will be some downpours and a few heavier thunderstorms to deal with during the week ahead.

It's no secret that excessive rain from ordinary storms can lead to serious floods, particularly if you're near the ocean, close to rivers prone to rising water during heavy rain, or even downhill from a dam. Hurricanes (or lesser but still dangerous windstorms) can add to that as their heavy winds push coastal water onshore in a storm surge. But there are actions you can take ahead of time to minimize possible damage. Your local town should be able to tell you whether your home is in (or close to) a flood zone. Doing a bit of research might be a smart move, particularly if you're house hunting.

Tropical storm warnings remain in effect for Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands as Tropical Storm Ernesto continues to pound the islands with flooding rain and damaging wind gusts, and forecasters warn that the storm is expected to become a hurricane sometime Wednesday.

The tropics have become more active over the past few weeks with the development of Hurricane Debby, which made its first US landfall in Florida, and then a second US landfall in South Carolina as a tropical storm.

Hot on its heels was Invest 98L and then Potential Tropical Cyclone Five, which began to organize as it moved over the warm waters of the tropical Atlantic Ocean and eventually became what is now Tropical Storm Ernesto.

What’s the forecast for Tropical Storm...
