Discussion
The Atlantic Basin has entered a relatively quiet period with respect to tropical activity and it may last for several days. However, there is little doubt that this is just temporary reprieve as sea surface temperatures remain quite warm across the Caribbean Sea, Gulf of Mexico, and the southwestern Atlantic. The upper air pattern across the nation will change next week to one that will feature an intense upper-level trough of low pressure over the central and eastern US and a strong high pressure ridge along the west coast. As a result, colder-than-normal conditions will dominate the central and eastern US by later next week and hot, dry weather is likely in the western states which will increase the chance of wildfires.
