I don't think it will be super strong, though.

From Weather.com

Alberto will strengthen and move slowly toward the northern Gulf Coast late this weekend.

Landfall of Alberto along the northern Gulf Coast is expected late Monday.

The main concern will be heavy rain over parts of Cuba, Florida and the southeastern U.S.

Flash flooding and river flooding may become more widespread and last well into the week ahead.

Tropical-storm-force winds and storm-surge flooding are likely from Mississippi to the west coast of Florida.
