Philippe becomes post-tropical system

FOX 13 Meteorologist Jim Weber is watching the tropics, which remain fairly active. He says Tropical Storm Philippe has lost its tropical characteristics and is now a post-tropical storm. Weber says Philippe is headed to the Northeast United States and will bring heavy rain and winds to New England this weekend. Weber is also watching a tropical wave working its way off the coast of Africa that has a 50 percent chance of developing over the next week.
