Discussion
High pressure over the western Atlantic Ocean will continue to produce an onshore flow of air around here for the next few days and this will prevent it from getting too hot with temperatures generally confined to the mid-to-upper 80’s for afternoon highs. The stiff breeze from the east-to-southeast will also keep it rather moist around here in the lower levels of the atmosphere and this will help to continue our daily threat of showers and thunderstorms. On the tropical scene, there is an increasing threat for a hurricane - perhaps even a "major" - by the early part of next week in the Louisiana coastal region.
