Expect some tropical downpours today; Hurricane Isaias brewing in Caribbean

ATLANTA — We’ve got another day of rain here in Georgia, but we’re also keeping a close eye on a brewing hurricane in the Caribbean.

Parts of metro Atlanta have seen rain the last couple days but today will be the last day before drier weather moves in.
