Tropical Storm Sally is located in the eastern Gulf, off the coast of southwest Florida. It will track to the northwest, towards the central Gulf coast. It is forecast to strengthen into a hurricane before it makes landfall on Tuesday, possibly near the LA/MS border. The remnants of Sally will then track to the northeast, and could bring us some rain ahead of the next approaching front by late Thursday into early Friday.
Elsewhere in the tropics, Paulette is a hurricane and will pass over or near Bermuda tonight into Monday. Rene is in the central Atlantic, and will just dissipate into an area of low pressure.
