Discussion
Our comfortable weather conditions of the past couple of days will disappear as we head through the upcoming weekend with a noticeable rise in humidity levels and temperatures. High pressure will shift to over the western Atlantic over the next 24 hours or so and strengthen as well allowing for a stiffening southwesterly flow of air in the eastern US. With the increase in moisture this weekend, the threat of showers and thunderstorms will increase and the steamier weather and threat of rain will continue early next week.
