“A continued westward motion is expected over the next few days, with a turn toward the west-northwest and northwest around the middle of the week,” forecasters said. “Slow strengthening is expected during the next few days.”

The NHC gave its last advisory for the system at 5 a.m., saying its remainders still posed a risk of coastal flooding with heavy rain from Washington to New York as it migrates out back into the Atlantic.
At the time, it was located regarding 85 miles south of Washington moving north-northeast at 25 mph with winds that had died down to 25 mph. It had come ashore early Saturday on Emerald Isle, North Carolina with 70 mph winds and spent the day moving up into the mid-Atlantic states while losing steam.
Before it made landfall, Ophelia proved treacherous enough that five people had to be rescued by the Coast Guard on Friday night from a boat anchored down near the North Carolina coastline.
Videos from social media showed riverfront communities in North Carolina such as New Bern, Belhaven and Washington experiencing significant flooding. The extent of the damage was not immediately clear.

In the eastern tropical Atlantic, the NHC has increased the chances for development of what is now a small area of low pressure several hundred miles south of the Cape Verde Islands with disorganized shower activity.
“Environmental conditions are forecast to be conducive for gradual development, and a tropical depression might form around midweek while the system moves westward to west-northwestward across the central tropical Atlantic,” forecasters said,
The NHC gives it a 30% chance to develop in the next two days and 70% chance in the next seven.
If it spins up into a named storm, it might become Tropical Storm Rina, and would be the 17th named storm of the season.
The NHC began tracking another system of disorganized showers and thunderstorms over the Southeastern Gulf of Mexico on Sunday followingnoon.
“Further development, if any, is expected to be slow to occur over the next few days while the system moves slowly westward,” Forecasters said. “By the middle of the week, upper-level winds are forecast to become less conducive for additional development.”
The NHC gives it a 10% chance to develop in the next two days and a 10% chance to form within the next seven.
