RICHMOND, Va. -- A Flash Flood Watch is in effect through the day today from heavy overnight rain and the expectation of afternoon and evening storms. Localized flooding is occurring in some areas already, and more rain is expected. The high today will only be in the upper 70s and lower 80s.

Saturday will be muggy with highs in the mid 80s. A few scattered storms will still be possible, with chances higher near the coast.

Sunday will be hot and muggy with an isolated storm possible. Highs will be around 90.

The first half of next week will be hot and humid with highs in the lower 90s. An isolated storm is possible each day.

Tropics: Grace is moving across the Yucatan Peninsula and tracking westward.

Henri is located between the east coast and Bermuda. It is expected to take a turn and move to the northeast. The center will stay far offshore, but high surf and dangerous rip currents will occur at the VA/NC beaches Friday through the weekend. Henri will be close to the New England coast Sunday night into Monday.
