TS Issac, Going From Strength To Weakness
posted (September 14, 2018)
And, as we go into the weekend, some may be wondering what's going to happen with Tropical Storm Isaac. Well, at 3:00 this afternoon, the storm which had weakened to a Depression has become a minimal storm again with maximum winds of 40 miles per hour.

But, there's not much prospect for development and the National Hurricane Center says the future of this system is unclear. It continues to move westward at 14 miles per hours, but a turn to the west-northwest is possible by late Sunday. The present forecast track seems to be taking it more towards the south of Jamaica by early next week.

But, the Hurricane Center reports that while it has re-gathered some strength - little change in strength is forecast during the next 36 hours - and the storm is forecast to again weaken to a tropical depression by Sunday and degenerate into a wave by Monday. But, this is just a forecast, and anything could happen - so we all have to keep watching this system.
