Discussion
A cool front will drift towards the region later today raising the chance for afternoon/evening showers and thunderstorms and then it’ll turn cooler late tonight following its passage. We’ll be much cooler on Friday with highs confined to the lower 70’s, but the cool down will only be temporary. We’ll climb back to the 80’s later this weekend and it looks like it’ll stay pretty warm for much of next week as well. On the active tropical scene, one system is likely to enter the Gulf of Mexico this weekend and it’ll produce some locally heavy rain and gusty winds in the Bahamas and Florida on its way to that location. There is a second tropical disturbance in the eastern Atlantic and it may become a threat to the Caribbean/Bahamas/SE US in a week to ten days or so.
