Discussion
Following the overnight passage of a surface cool front, the short work week will start off quite comfortable with low humidity values and a northerly breeze. High pressure stays in control into mid-week at which time it’ll shift offshore and open the door for hotter and more humid air to flow in this direction. The July 4th holiday will feature hot and humid conditions and the chance of showers and thunderstorms. The threat of showers and storms will continue on Friday and Saturday as well along with hot and humid conditions featuring an approaching cool front from northwest of here.
