Hurricane Isaias
Norcross: Tropical Storm Isaias is past Broward, moving north toward Florida’s east coast
Isaias tried to reorganize over the warm water of the Gulf Stream overnight, but the hostile upper winds and dry air won the battle. The maximum intensity of the winds has come down, but it remains a well-organized storm that can do damage if the core comes over the coast. It has been wobbling, but it is pretty much on track.
