Discussion
High pressure will build offshore today and a weak cold front will approach from the northwest. This front could set off a shower or thunderstorm at any time between late today and tomorrow evening as it slowly pushes through the region, but most of the time will be rain-free and the weekend looks dry. Meanwhile, the tropics remain active and one tropical system appears to be headed towards Florida and the Gulf of Mexico and it could have an impact there by the latter part of the weekend or the early part of next week. Currently, the system remains somewhat disorganized near the island of Hispaniola which has some mountainous terrain that should prevent any quick intensification.
