rain moves kind of slowly. this system is just crawling across the state. moves slowly up, impacts orlando. and then all that rain on saturated soil, we're at the end of the wet season here in florida, the rainy season here in florida. that's going to topple trees, take out power. it's just going to be a long, long night for people here in central florida. >> it's also the end of the rainy season for florida. how does that complicate things? >> it does because the soil is already saturated. if you're not familiar with florida and our rainy season, it basically rains daily, afternoon thunderstorms, for about six months. so, we're at the tail end of the rainy season, which means the soil is saturated. there's water everywhere. i go home and my yard is just saturated because therere's jus water everywhere. >> jamie rhohome, appreciate wh you're doing. i know it's going to be a longn night for you. thank you. cocoming up, we'll get the newest information fwrun of the hafrdest hit counties. we'll be right back. customizes your car insurance so you only pay for what you need!
the water out of the bay and then as it goes north it will blow it back into the bay so that could be something to tee. but probably six feet of surge is likely. right now with this forecast, if the forecast changes, all of these numbers are going to change as well. this is right now, right now, right now. and this may not even make any type of close call to land for 60 more hours. >> listen, we cover the storms and how quickly the storm surge to come up, it could surprise you. chad myers, we appreciate that. carlos suarez is live in tampa. so, carlos, statewide florida under a state of emergency. you've been watching people there get ready. i'm curious, how concerned they are? >> reporter: so just about everyone that we talked to this morning are worried about this considering that so much of the tampa area really is flood prone. even in afternoon thunderstorms, a lot of folks said it is not
diali dealing with these tremendous complications, nasa is having to deal with the florida weather. this is august in florida. fortunately no hurricanes are around the corner so they don't have to deal with that right now at least. but we are dealing with a ton of afternoon thunderstorms and we found out we have a strong storm coming through here a few hours ago. and we just learned from a top nasa official that lightning actually struck that launch pad where the artemis is right this minute. there's a lightning protection system around the launch pad and it appears to have done its job. you can see shots of lightning striking one of the towers, there are teams out trying to assess if there's any damage. but that's one of the many things that nasa is having to contend with. right now, the forecast for monday, 70% favorable conditions on monday. so fingers crossed it gets
historic rain in just a matter of hours. can you see that rain is pushing across louisiana area in towards arkansas and mississippi today although we will see the potential for flooding for parts of central and south texas. still to come. we could see 5 to 8 inches, maybe higher totals and isolated amounts. that's going to stretch into florida over the next five days as well. also florida, obviously, we have got the primary today, the turnout is pretty good. we could see some afternoon thunderstorms, so i think the best idea is to go out and vote this morning and then your forecast today across the country, very warm, especially for the northwest, the great basin, california, it's still going to feel warm and sticky for much of the country and the northwest you could set some records or near records on thursday it has been very warm across this region. we are tracking the tropical tr. watching this area of development. it might not get its act together which is great news. really incredible this time of
will be running up eventually along the east coast getting into the carolinas, but one spot i want to point out also is a line of storms sweeping across the great lakes. some of those have been severe. more afternoon thunderstorms. the ground already saturated. likely see another 5 to 6 inches in some of these places. wouldn't be surprised if there's a bit of flooding in that area. that's something folks need to pay attention to. it is going ton't cobecause it is july -- it is going to continue because it is july, hot, sticky, humid, kind of typical weather out there. >> eric: i guess the rainstorms also help lower the temperatures, that could be a good thing but you need to watch out and hydrate. >> adam: yep. >> eric: thank you, good to see you. that's it for fox news live for now, for myself. arthel will be back next week, hope she is, it is lonely in here. the big sunday show next. sensodyne sensitivity & gum gives us the dual action effect that really takes care
put a damper on the holiday plans. meteorologist karen mcginnis is monitoring the storm system. so what does it look like out there? >> just the combination of heavy volume of travelers at the major airports and the afternoon thunderstorms and then now we've got kind of the key iengredient for some delays and they include atlanta, raleigh, washington, d.c. and new york and into boston. that i-95 corridor, very active for this evening. also portions of the midwest, from chicago to kansas city. and even into the pacific northwest, later on in the day there could be some minor weather related delays. now these are not cancellations. they strictly apply to weather. and you could see there is a very active weather pattern across much of the united states. we could see the rick for severe weather across the northern great plains and that northeastern corridor. all right. this is tropical storm collin. it formed at about 5:00 this morning eastern time. just off the coast of south carolina. and most of the deep convection is further to the south.
but it also means that there will be the risk of a pretty strong rip current in some of the coastal areas of north and south carolina. then the risk of the afternoon thunderstorms. so if you're driving to a destination, watch out because some of those thunderstorms could really reduce your visibility tremendously. also during the afternoon, you start here and there you could see that flare-up of storms as we go toward the evening and storms across the northern tier, and the dakotas and into minnesota. we could see damaging winds and large size hail with a very languishing weather system. how hat is it going to be? temperatures in the 90s. dollars 97. as not as hot. but it does appear as if the weather trend as far as thunderstorms is concerned, it begins to taper off tomorrow and more so for july 4th. so we'll salvage part of the holiday for you. back to you, ryan. >> thank you so much. let's talk more about this now with henry hartfeld, the
activity across the entire country there's a lot of humidity out there. big afternoon thunderstorms. tropical storm at the coast of the carolinas but somewhat of a quick mover but we're going to see winds at about 40 miles an hour. if you are looking here across portions of the outer banks and wondering about your entire holiday weekend, this is going to be moving through on sunday, sunday evening by monday morning the day on monday, on july 4 is going to be a fine beach day. for the next couple of days tropical storm warnings from myrtle beach all the way up the coast we can see it rip current risks britt heavy rain at times fairly strong winds. the way the system is currently move its way up the coast you do notice most of the heavy rain, most of that thunderstorm activity is out over the ocean. dryer right along the coast but still going to be a storm system that is moving through. means we could be seeing rainfall totals of at least a couple inches across its entire region. the winds are going to have the
