Low pressure is forecast to form east of the Georgia and northeast Florida coast on Friday and then drift northward to near the Carolina coast during the weekend. Confidence remains low on the eventual track of this system, but breezy conditions should result Friday and Saturday for parts of our area. Expect a greater chance of rain especially in the eastern Piedmont over the weekend.

Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
200 AM EDT Wed Sep 20 2023
For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:
Active Systems:
The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Hurricane Nigel, located over the central subtropical Atlantic.
1. Eastern Tropical Atlantic:
A tropical wave is currently located just off the west coast of Africa. Environmental conditions are forecast to be conducive for gradual development, and a tropical depression is likely to form late this week or this weekend while the system moves generally westward at 10 to 15 mph across the eastern and central tropical Atlantic.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...high...70 percent.
2. Western Atlantic:
A non-tropical area of low pressure is expected to form east of the Florida peninsula late this week. This system could acquire some subtropical characteristics by this weekend while it moves generally northward. Regardless of development, this low is likely to bring gusty winds, heavy rain, and high surf to portions of the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic United States late this week and into this weekend. Please see products from your local National Weather Service office for more details.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
