Discussion
High pressure controlled the weather around here this weekend and it will shift off the coast over the next couple of days. In addition, there will be a weak frontal passage late Tuesday and a strengthening tropical system (Chris) off the Carolina coastline. As a result, the heat and humidity will increase compared to the weekend and the weak front may trigger a few showers and thunderstorms.
