USA Today reports [usatoday.com] that Tropical Depression Eight is moving towards the east coast of North Carolina, and the National Hurricane Center [noaa.gov] expects the storm to develop into Tropical Storm Hermine.

In the Gulf of Mexico, Tropical Depression Nine is projected to strengthen into a tropical storm and make landfall around central Florida. It could also bring more rain to Louisiana, which is still recovering from last week's deadly floods. On Sunday, a bus carrying relief workers headed to Baton Rouge crashed into a fire truck [nbcnews.com], killing two people and injuring dozens.

Category 3 Hurricane Gaston is projected [noaa.gov] to move further into the Atlantic Ocean and weaken.
