Synopsis:
Warm and humid conditions are expected this last weekend of Summer as high pressure dominates. Today will start off with areas of fog but the sun will return with temperatures just above average.
The workweek will once again start off with morning patchy fog but skies will become partly sunny.
Hurricane Jose is between Bermuda and the US and moving North. Will it eventually affect the East coast? Most of the models now have come to a consensus that the hurricane will ride North-parallel and up off the coast through next week (NHC map above). The potential of coastal showers and gusty winds are in the forecast for later Tuesday into Wednesday. High surf, rip currents and beach erosion is a likely to matter what the eventual track is. As we all know, the track can change. Affects from Jose will most likely be felt but a direct hit at this time is unlikely. As with any tropical system; I NEVER let my guard down until the storm is North of our latitude.
This is the peak of hurricane season. Tropical Storm Maria and Lee are in the tropical Atlantic and moving West. Maria is forecast to become a major hurricane and affect parts of the leeward islands within 48 hours. Map below.
