Hurricane Erin battered North Carolina's Outer Banks with strong winds and waves that flooded part of the main highway and surged under beachfront homes before slowly moving away.

Storms finally brought some relief and a bit of chaos to the Valley after a lackluster monsoon so far. Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport recorded 0.04 of an inch of rain, the first measurable rainfall there this month. But that’s still well below the 0.64-inch average for August at the weather station.

Rain chances will drop off to 20% each day from Tuesday through at least next weekend. Mornings will be pleasant with most areas starting out in the 60s, and afternoon highs looking to be 5° below average. In the tropics, Tropical Storm Fernand has formed in the Central Atlantic. This system is forecast to move northward and pose no threat to land.

The former Hurricane Erin headed out to sea and became a non-tropical system on Friday, but the National Hurricane Center continued to track two other systems on Saturday in the Atlantic. One of them could become Tropical Storm Fernand soon. As of Saturday morning that system was located about 500 miles south-southeast of Bermuda.

Maddy Siegrist led Dallas with 12 points. Paige Bueckers scored eight of the Wings' first 12 points but finished with just 11.

Temperatures are on the rise, climbing back into the low 20s again. Then it is all to change as Hurricane Erin introduces wet and windy weather by the end of the bank holiday and more general unsettled conditions for next week.

Paige Bueckers scored 11 points Friday night, but the Dallas Wings dropped their fourth straight game in a 95-60 blowout loss to the Skylar Diggins and the Seattle Storm at home.
