Isais is expected to move upward along the East Coast and reach Washington, Philadelphia, and New York City on Tuesday before moving into New England. Little change was expected in the storm’s strength in the next couple of days, the NHC said. The Palm Beach area, where President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort is located, emerged largely unscathed from the storm after it brushed off its coast, with authorities reporting no widespread damage and no flooding. “We still are experiencing some winds,” a spokeswoman for Palm Beach County tells Reuters. “However, based on the latest forecast, those winds should be dying down early afternoon.” Isaias caused at least two deaths in the Dominican Republic and knocked out power for thousands of homes and businesses in Puerto Rico, according to media reports.
