WEATHER (6:00 PM, October 15): Scattered showers and Thunderstorm activity expected

A weak tropical wave together with the presence of a low to mid-level trough is expected to produce an increase in cloudiness, scattered showers and a chance of isolated thunderstorms across the area mainly during tonight. Shower and thunderstorm activity could become moderate to heavy at times. People in areas prone to flooding, landslides and falling rocks should exercise caution during tonight. Thereafter, a high pressure system is expected to result in a relatively dry atmosphere during tomorrow as the day progresses.

Moderate seas are anticipated during the next 24 hours with swells peaking near 7.0ft. A High Surf Advisory is in effect for above normal seas on the eastern coast. Small craft operators and sea bathers should exercise caution. Light winds are expected over the next few days with a gradual reduction in swells expected by tomorrow.
