Discussion
Hurricane Joaquin continues to trek across the Atlantic Ocean this morning now to the northwest of Bermuda and high pressure will build into the Mid-Atlantic region over the next couple of days. The bullseye of the weekend rainfall occurred over South Carolina where 2 feet of rain fell in spots aided by a deep, slow-moving upper-level trough and stationary strong high pressure to the north. It is likely to stay rain-free around here for much of the week with the next good chance for showers coming on Friday as a cold front approaches the region.
