Discussion
The weather today will feature a dramatic warm-up as high pressure now over the western Atlantic will promote a stronger southerly flow of air into this region from the Gulf of Mexico. Temperatures this afternoon will likely peak in the low-to-mid 80’s and they’ll stay in that general zone right through the upcoming weekend. The flow of air from the Gulf of Mexico will also become increasingly moist and this will lead to an increasing chance of showers and thunderstorms by the late stages of the weekend. Elsewhere, low pressure will form near or over the Bahamas during the next 24-48 hours and it could become the first "official" tropical system of the 2020 Atlantic Basin tropical season as it intensifies and makes a move to the northeast over the SW Atlantic.
