National weather forecast: Tropical Storm Claudette impacting North Carolina

Tropical Storm Claudette is moving northeastward

Tropical Storm Claudette is forecast to bring heavy rain and flooding to portions of North Carolina on Monday before moving off the Mid-Atlantic coast. 

The storm will then move northeastward and enter the Canadian maritime by Wednesday.  

An additional disorganized low-pressure system is being monitored 900 miles east of the Windward Islands. That area has a 20% chance of becoming a tropical system over the next five days.
