Monday morning should not feature any problems other than a few scattered showers, it will become breezy into the afternoon with showers/storms spreading northward into the area by late afternoon.
Fred has been interacting with land for the past few days, and that has caused it to lose its strength and organization. Saturday morning, Fred lost its closed center of circulation therefore losing its status of “Tropical Depression”. Winds are still sustained at 35 mph.
Fred weakened to a Tropical Depression last night while interacting with the Dominican Republic and Haiti. As of this afternoon, Fred is still a Tropical Depression with maximum sustained winds of 35 mph.
