Typical July Conditions This Week. Watching Tropical Storm Chris…

 

Synopsis:

The heat will return for the beginning of the week as high pressure moves off the coast and a Southwest flow develops. Temperatures will not be as hot as last week and the humidity will only rise to moderate levels.

A cool front will move through Tuesday night. 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.

Tropical Storm Chris is off the North Carolina coast and is basically stationary. Chris will most likely become a hurricane in the next 24 hours. 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.

Today:

Sunny and warmer with highs in the mid to upper 80s. Southwest winds at 8-12mph.

Tonight:

Clear. Lows around 70º in the City, the 60s inland. South to Southwest winds under 5mph.

Toasty Tuesday. Spotty PM Storm…

Synopsis:

An area of high pressure will sit off the East coast through the week. This has and will continue to be responsible for the heatwave. Tuesday’s heat won’t nearly be as extreme as the last two days.

A heatwave is defined as three consecutive days of 90º+.  The combination of the high temperatures and high humidity will result in a dangerous heat index (how it actually feels) into Tuesday. A Heat Advisory is in effect for areas by the coast and the City. A heat index of 95-104º is expected. An Excessive Heat Warning is in effect for Tuesday for and many areas just inland from the coast. A Heat Index of around 105º is expected.
