Tropical Storm Isaac continued its trek west across the Caribbean Thursday on a course that should take it over Hispaniola and Cuba over the weekend.
It also remains on a projected track that would take it over the Keys early Monday and close to Tampa on Tuesday as a hurricane.
If that projection holds, the system could bring squally to severe weather to much of the state, starting Sunday. It also would disrupt the Republican National Convention, which starts on Monday.
At 5 p.m. Thursday, Isaac was about 255 miles southeast of Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, moving northwest at 16 mph with maximum sustained winds of 40 mph.
Cuba issued a tropical storm watch Thursday afternoon, and the Bahamas issued a tropical storm warning.
