Discussion
Surface high pressure over the western Atlantic will continue to pump warm and humid air in to the southeastern states over the next couple of days. At the same time, an upper-level low will drop from the Great Lakes to a position over the Mid-Atlantic region by the early part of the upcoming weekend. As a result, it’ll stay unsettled around here into the weekend with a daily shot at showers and storms. Meanwhile, the tropical Atlantic is quite active with an impressive wave still moving on a WNW track after coming off the west coast of Africa last week. This system may become a player for the Gulf of Mexico/Southeast US later next week.
