A few isolated morning showers pop up near the coast, but the main rain threat arrives in the afternoon and evening, especially inland, where heavy downpours could trigger flood advisories. Highs will hit the low 90s near the coast and mid-90s inland, with heat indices peaking near 105.

5 p.m. Update: Erin is now organizing and strengthening over the Central Atlantic. Erin is expected to become at least a Catgory 3 hurricane but missing Puerto Rico to the north and staying well east of Florida.
