Tropical Storm Isaac
This is the latest forecast models which show the the possible track of Isaac!
By Friday afternoon we could see this storm develop into a hurricane. Its likely impact would be near Haiti. Then on Monday most computer models are still hinting that this thing will move towards southern Florida or points west as a Category 1 Hurricane. The ensemble models are beginning to agree a bit more with the track of this storm:

At this point, forecasters say the Tropical Storm Isaac track is most likely to impact Florida, Alabama, Georgia and Mississippi early next week (Monday through Wednesday).

Right now Isaac is a tropical storm. Winds are in the 40-50mph range and are expected to increase during the day. Most models bring Isaac to a category 1 or weak category 2 hurricane early next week. We are not looking at a major hurricane the way things appear right now. The satellite below shows the clouds that make up the storm. You don't see an eye or the classic hurricane cloud formation yet. That will develop as the storm becomes better organized later this week. Computer models are not perfect and the storm could become much stronger than forecast.
