Grace is moving toward Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula and Tropical Storm Henri is spinning south of Bermuda. Neither are likely to affect the Southeast United States, but a large outbreak of Saharan dust should be more noticeable.

Tropical Storm Fred was gradually gaining strength and slowing down as it approached the Florida Panhandle Monday morning, with landfall expected near Panama City Monday afternoon.

Grace weakened to a depression over the eastern Caribbean late Sunday afternoon. It is still on course to come near or pass over Hispaniola on Monday.

Hazards such as heavy rain and potential flooding are still possible on Sunday, but the worst effects from Fred are expected to stay out over the Gulf and head for the Panhandle.

Tropical Storm and Storm Surge Warnings are now in effect for a large portion of the Florida Panhandle and Big Bend as Fred moves toward the north-northwest.

Tropical Depression Fred is expected to regain tropical storm strength by the time it approaches Southwest Florida Friday night, and a Tropical Storm Watch over the Keys and Straits of Florida has been upgraded to a Tropical Storm Warning.

Wind and surge impacts could vary greatly in some places depending on Fred's track, but the greatest hazard to most Floridians will be heavy rain and potential flooding.

The storm has the potential to affect a large portion of Florida this weekend with heavy rain and high winds, although the magnitude, location and timing of those impacts are still uncertain.
