Isaias skirts Florida coast, bringing heavy rain and winds
Tropical Storm Isaias is hovering off the coast of Florida, and is expected to dump up to six inches of rain over parts of the state.
As it hit the Bahamas on Saturday evening, Isaias was downgraded from a hurricane to a tropical storm, but the National Hurricane Center on Sunday evening said the storm is "expected to be near hurricane strength when it reaches the coast of northern South Carolina and southern North Carolina Monday night," and flash and urban flooding will be likely in the "eastern Carolinas and mid-Atlantic."
As of 5 p.m. ET, Isaias was 65 miles southeast of Cape Canaveral, with maximum sustained winds of 70 mph.
