Hurricane Isaias will hug the Florida coastline in the coming days. Hurricane warnings have been posted. The storm is then expected to weaken as it approaches the Carolina coastlines. The storm is expected to stay a category one storm.
We still have two other areas to monitor, but neither look to be a threat to the US coastline at this time.

NASA Nerdology
Remember these two guys? We watched them launch into space a couple months ago on the first commercially built spacecraft. Now, they begin preparations to return home! They undock this evening from the International Space Station and they will splash down in the ocean Sunday afternoon at 1:42 CDT. Keep in mind that you can watch and track it all at http://www.nasa.gov! We wish these gentlemen a safe trip home.
You all have a great day!
