Discussion
Tropical Storm Nate is headed north-northwest today towards the eastern Yucatan Peninsula and then will move into the central Gulf of Mexico on Saturday. Nate could very well intensify into hurricane status by late Saturday over the warm waters of the central Gulf of Mexico and then continue northward right towards the Louisiana/Mississippi border region by very early Sunday. After that, Nate is likely to take a turn to the northeast and move through the Tennessee Valley on Monday and into the interior part of the Mid-Atlantic. This potential path will likely bring some significant rainfall to the Mid-Atlantic region later Sunday night and Monday - which is welcome news for the area considering the very dry weather of the past few weeks.
