Synopsis:
High pressure off the East coast will result in a Summer preview for the start of the Memorial Day weekend. Skies will be partly sunny today. The humidity will be higher. A spotty thunderstorm is possible this afternoon and evening. Most areas will remain dry. Please slather on the sunscreen, as this is most likely the first prolonged time much of us will be out in the sun. The UV index will be a high 8 today.
A cool front will work into the region tonight. Shower and thunderstorms are likely. This front will slip to our South Sunday morning with a period of rain. On and off showers are expected during the afternoon. Readings will be at least twenty degrees cooler than Saturday’s upper 80s.
The Memorial Day forecast is still looking decent. The front should be just far enough South of the area for only the threat of a spot shower in the morning. Clouds will give way to some sun by afternoon. Seasonal readings can be expected.
The beginning of the workweek will be warm with plenty of sunshine.
Stay tuned.
