Synopsis:
A cool front will move through tonight with spotty showers or storms. This is good news as another heatwave will not be in our near future. High pressure will move in once again for the rest of the week resulting in typical July readings and low humidity. The humidity will once again increase this weekend. At this time both days should be rain-free and warm.
Tropical Storm Chris is off the North Carolina coast and is slowly moving Northeast. The storm should become a hurricane today. Warm waters and little shear will help to strengthen the storm. At this time, the system looks to stay off the coast and eventually move to the Northeast out to sea during the upcoming week. Rough surf and dangerous rip currents will be the main concern for our area during the upcoming week.
Stay tuned.
