Discussion
A weak cold front will arrive today, but it should not produce any rainfall in the area and skies will be mainly sunny. A stronger front arrives late Wednesday and it could produce some shower and thunderstorms activity in the mid-week period. Following the mid-week frontal passage, very comfortable weather will return for Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Meanwhile, the tropics are alive and well. One tropical system is closing in on the Carolinas (tropical depression 8) and another is working its way into the Gulf of Mexico (tropical depression 9). The system headed towards the Gulf of Mexico could intensity over the next few days and then move towards the Florida Panhandle region by the latter part of the week.
