High pressure ridging will generate a southwesterly flow of air over the next few days resulting in continued hot weather around here with high temperatures in the lower 90’s. In addition, there will be enough low-level instability and moisture around to allow for the formation of scattered showers and thunderstorms through the upcoming weekend. The nearby part of the tropical Atlantic is still relatively quiet, but we’ll closely monitor activity as the climatological peak of the season fast approaches. The annual Perseid meteor shower peaks this weekend so the potential unsettled weather could result in unfavorable viewing conditions.

High pressure ridging will build in for the rest of the week and our flow will become more southwesterly resulting in some hot weather around here and high temperatures in the lower 90’s for the next couple of days. There will be enough low-level instability and moisture around to allow for the formation of scattered showers and thunderstorms for the next few days. The nearby part of the tropical Atlantic is still relatively quiet, but we’ll closely monitor activity as the climatological peak of the season fast approaches.

A weak trough of low pressure will produce a southeast flow of air around here today and there can be enough moisture for scattered shower/thunderstorm activity. High pressure ridging will build in for the rest of the week and our flow will become more southwesterly adding more moisture to the region so that showers and storms may become a bit more widespread. The annual Perseid meteor shower peaks this weekend and the weather from this vantage point does not look too promising for viewing.

A ridge of high pressure continues to exist across the Southeast US and it’ll stay moist enough for in the lower levels of the atmosphere for scattered showers and storms over the next few days. The tropics remain relatively quiet but will be monitored closely as we are just now beginning to ramp up to the climatological peak of the Atlantic Basin tropical season (mid Sept).

A ridge of high pressure centered over the western Atlantic will continue to dominate the weather scene around here by pumping very warm and humid air into the region. As a result, the daily shot at scattered showers and thunderstorms will continue into next week and high temperatures will approach the 90 degree mark on a daily basis. The tropics remain rather quiet as the combination of Saharan Desert air, wind shear and colder-than-normal waters off of Africa continue to suppress overall activity.

An unusually strong upper-level trough over the south-central US is combining with strong high pressure ridging over the western Atlantic Ocean to persistently pump tropical air from south-to-north along the eastern seaboard. As a result, the threat for showers and thunderstorms will continue on a daily basis right into the weekend throughout much of the eastern US including right here in central Florida.

An unusually strong upper-level trough over the Midwest is combining with strong high pressure ridging over the western Atlantic Ocean to pump tropical air from south-to-north along the eastern seaboard. Similar to last week’s pattern, more soaking rainfall is coming to the eastern US and this is to include the state of Florida.

An unusually strong upper-level trough will form this week over the Midwest and it’ll combine with strong high pressure ridging over the western Atlantic Ocean to pump tropical air from south-to-north along the eastern seaboard. Similar to last week’s pattern, this one will likely result in more soaking rainfall for much of the eastern third of the nation including the state of Florida.

An unusually strong upper-level trough will form this week over the Midwest and it’ll combine with strong ridging over the western Atlantic to persistently pump moist air from south-to-north along the eastern seaboard. Similar to last week’s pattern, this too will likely result in more soaking rainfall for much of the eastern third of the nation including here in the Tennessee Valley.

High pressure over the western Atlantic has expanded into our area and it will generate some sunshine around here each of the next several days along with very warm and humid conditions and a continuing shot at afternoon/evening showers and thunderstorms. A new upper-level trough will form during the first half of next week over the Midwest and our low-level flow of air will remain southerly with enough moisture around to continue the daily threat of showers and thunderstorms.
