Discussion
Humidity levels will rise a bit today as high pressure begins a shift to off the Northeast US coastline. Higher humidity levels and an approaching frontal system will make it more unsettled around here for the second half of the work week. As a result, the chance for showers and thunderstorms will return on a daily basis, but no widespread heavy rain event is likely in the near term. Also, no excessive heat is likely as we progress through the first few days of August.
