The latest National Hurricane Center forecast has it passing 135 miles west of Miami very early Tuesday morning. At that distance even while in the dirty side we could escape the worse effects of Elsa.
But there is still a lot of uncertainty and it will take the weekend before we can determine exactly what impacts, if any, it will have on our largest population centers.
Saturday into Sunday, we will increasingly come under the influence of more stable air on the distant outskirts of Elsa, and therefore thunderstorms locally are expected to diminish while temperatures spike into the mid 90s.
