6:00 AM | **Occasional showers and thunderstorms likely...Hurricane Erin curves away from the east coast, but rip currents, rough surf, strong winds along coastal sections**

Paul Dorian

An upper-level trough will push into the northeastern states later today and raise the chance for afternoon and nighttime showers and thunderstorms in the DC-to-Philly-to-NYC corridor...some of the rain can be heavy at times. Hurricane Erin (category 2) will curve away from the east coast during the next couple of days partly as a result of this incoming upper-level trough and begin to accelerate to the northeast on Thursday and is likely to be positioned over the open waters of the North Atlantic by later this weekend. Despite Erin’s track well to our east, rip currents and rough surf will be a big problem along coastal sections during the next couple of days and there can be some beach erosion and flooding at times.

A second high pressure system takes control of the weather for the late week and beginning of the weekend with sunny weather and comfortable temperatures expected on Friday and Saturday. Looking ahead, there are signs for cooler-than-normal conditions across much of the eastern half of the nation for the last week or so of August and we’ll have two tropical systems to monitor on the heels of Hurricane Erin that are now in the eastern Atlantic (may become Fernand and Gabrielle).

***Hurricane Erin to curve away from east coast...recent weakening brings it down to category 2...Mid-Atlantic coastline impacted on Thursday...two other tropical systems...cool pattern to set up***

Paul Dorian

Erin has weakened during the past 24 hours and has now lost its “major” hurricane status and is classified as a category 2 storm with maximum sustained winds of 105 mph. The long-anticipated curve of Erin has begun with a movement currently to the northwest at 9 mph to be followed by a northerly push on Wednesday and then an acceleration to the northeast on Thursday. While Erin has weakened in recent hours, it has also expanded in size and its outer perimeter winds are likely to reach tropical-storm force levels across the Outer Banks on Wednesday and potentially even to hurricane-force levels. Rip currents and rough surf will extend all the way up the eastern seaboard for the next couple of days and beach erosion/coastal flooding is on the table in many areas. The biggest impact along the Mid-Atlantic coastline will come later Wednesday night and Thursday with strong winds impacting coastal sections from Long Island-to-New Jersey-to-the Delmarva Peninsula.

Looking ahead, there are two other tropical systems now in the eastern Atlantic, and they’ll have to be monitored during the next several days...any impact from these two systems would be from next week into the following week which would take us into the early part of September. Also, a cooler-than-normal weather pattern looks like it’ll set up for much of the eastern half of the nation for the last week or so of the month of August once Hurricane Erin exits off to the open waters of the North Atlantic.

6:00 AM | **Another cooler-than-normal day with an onshore flow of air...Hurricane Erin curves away from the coast next few days, but brings rip currents, rough surf to coastal sections**

Paul Dorian

High pressure to our north will continue to produce an ocean flow of air around here for the next couple of days helping to keep temperatures cooler-than-normal for this time of year. It’ll be unsettled as well with an occasional showers through tonight and then they’ll be a chance of showers and thunderstorms from tomorrow afternoon into tomorrow night associated with an upper-level trough of low pressure.

Hurricane Erin - now a category 3 storm - will curve away from the east coast during the next couple of days partly as a result of this incoming upper-level trough and by Thursday, it’ll begin to race to the northeast towards the open waters of the North Atlantic. Despite Erin’s track well to our east, rip currents and rough surf will be a problem along coastal sections during the next few days and there can be some beach erosion and flooding at times. A second high pressure system takes control of the weather for the latter part of the week and beginning of the weekend with nice weather and comfortable temperatures expected on Friday and Saturday.

6:00 AM | **Increasingly hot weather next few days with 100 degrees on the table by Thursday afternoon**

Paul Dorian

Increasingly hot weather is in store for the region during the next few days with temperatures reaching the lower 90’s this afternoon for highs and perhaps near 100 degrees by Thursday afternoon. A frontal system should bring some relief by the end of the work week and for the weekend and there will be an increased chance of showers and thunderstorms.
