Most hurricanes that go down in history are remembered for the devastation they bring. But with little to no chance of hitting land, Hurricane Erin will be remembered for something else: its size.
The ocean is taking more than it gives on Martha's Vineyard. Each storm is cutting deeper into South Beach in Edgartown, and the pace is accelerating."The storms are coming a bit harder and faster," said Edgartown conservation agent Kara Shemeth.
Scattered showers and thunderstorms could bring gusty winds, lightning and heavy rainfall to Central Texas, the National Weather Service said.
Many North Texans fell asleep late Tuesday to violent pop-up thunderstorms and powerful wind gusts, knocking out power in some parts of Fort Worth, before waking up early Wednesday to even more storms.
Morning storms will exit Minnesota on Friday, but some lingering showers are possible into the early afternoon.
Rain will build into the area throughout the day, with scattered showers and storms possible throughout the afternoon. Roughly 60% of our SWFL area will receive coverage. Highs will top out in the upper 80s to lower 90s. Storms will begin to taper off throughout the evening.
Friday will be one of the more eventful days we have for weather coming up between fog on the morning commute and storms in the afternoon and evening.
