Update on Whether “Monday Night Raw” Will Be Postponed Due to Tropical Storm

Fans worrying about next week’s edition of “Monday Night Raw” being postponed can now breathe a sigh of relief.

It had previously been reported that Tropical Storm Erika was set to hit the Florida area this Monday when “Raw” is set to air live from Amalie Arena in Tampa.

A recent update from Weather.com offers good news to those looking forward to the program, though:

“The National Hurricane Center declared that Tropical Storm Erika dissipated near the north coast of eastern Cuba at 9:30 a.m. EDT on Saturday, Aug. 29, 2015. It was at this time that Hurricane Hunter data concluded that the former tropical cyclone had degenerated to a trough of low pressure. Erika was struggling to remain a named system for more than 24 hours, as it moved west-northwest across the Caribbean, before it officially dissipated.”

“Erika formed on Aug. 24, 2015, as it was immediately classified as a tropical storm. Erika maintained tropical storm status for its entire life cycle. It reached peak intensity with winds of 50 mph on multiple occasions, as it remained a fairly weak tropical storm.”

Per TampaBay.com, all area watches and warnings have officially been lifted.

While there still may be inclement weather Monday, the belief is that it won’t be bad enough to force a cancellation of “Raw.”

Scheduled for the show at this time is an opening segment featuring “The Vigilante” Sting, as well as a Beat-The-Clock Challenge featuring all three members of Team PCB to crown a new No. 1 contender for the Divas Championship.
