SAVANNAH, Ga. () — Slow-moving showers and storms brought a soggy Friday to a lot of us with flooding rain taking place for large portions of the area.

Some spots were under flood alerts as waterlogged ground coupled with very heavy rainfall rates overwhelmed drainage, leading to flooded roadways and neighborhoods.

A Flood Watch remains in effect through Sunday morning for all of the Coastal Empire and Lowcountry due to the unsettled pattern sticking around for the area.

An area of low pressure moving through the Southeast will continue to funnel in moisture through this weekend. Storms are likely Saturday in multiple rounds between mid-morning and the evening, before finally getting a brief chance to dry out overnight into Sunday.

Storms will not be in any hurry, so expect the possibility of flooding rainfall. Have indoor plans available and use caution with any travel due to how quickly flooding can set in.

Storm chances continue for Sunday, but they will be much more isolated in nature as the area of low pressure pulls away.

Next week features drier weather and even the possibility of a cooldown in the form of much milder air moving in for the latter half of the week.

In the tropics, Erin has become post-tropical as it has transitioned into a mid-latitude cyclone. There are two other areas being monitored by the National Hurricane Center, designated as Invest 90-L and Invest 90L.

Invest 90-L is the lead disturbance, currently located well north of the Caribbean. The system has a 90% chance of becoming a tropical depression or named storm over the next few days. It will stay well out to sea.

Invest 99-L is located between Africa and the Caribbean. The system is struggling with dry air and wind shear and its chance of developing is down to 30%. However, it bears watching over the long run since it will track westward into the Caribbean Sea by next week.

There are no tropical threats to the Coastal Empire and Lowcountry at this time.
