Discussion
High pressure will remain in control over the next few days resulting in plenty of sunshine around here to go along with continued hot and humid conditions. A cold front approaches the region late Friday and it is likely to stall out in the Mid-Atlantic region this weekend. Its proximity over the weekend could bring us a bit of relief in the temperature department. Temperatures are likely to reach 90 degrees or slightly above that mark during the next few days and then perhaps be confined to the middle 80’s for afternoon highs this weekend. On the tropical scene, there are signs for a possible hurricane in the Texas/Louisiana coastal region by Monday or so...something to closely monitor next few days.
