An upper-level ridge of high pressure near the Bahamas will have a couple of effects on the region over the next few days. First, it will allow for warming in the lower levels of the atmosphere and afternoon temperatures are likely to reach or even slightly surpass the 90 degree mark on a daily basis. Second, this system will push in enough moisture to continue the chances here for afternoon and evening showers and thunderstorms as we progress through the week.

An upper-level ridge of high pressure near the Bahamas will have a couple of effects on the region's weather in coming days. First, it will allow for warming in the lower levels of the atmosphere and afternoon temperatures are likely to reach the 90 degree mark on a daily basis. Second, this system will push in enough moisture to continue the high chances for afternoon and evening showers and thunderstorms in much of the Florida Peninsula as we progress through the week.

A stalled-out frontal system along the east coast as we begin the new work week will help to keep it somewhat unsettled in the southeastern states. The chance for afternoon/evening showers and thunderstorms will persist during the next days and there will be a continuation of the overall quite warm and humid weather conditions.

Onshore flow will stick around the region this weekend with high pressure sitting off to the north and east of here. With the added low-level moisture, daily showers and scattered thunderstorms will remain a threat this weekend and into the early part of next week. High temperatures will generally be confined to the mid-to-upper 80’s over the next few days with the expected abundance of low-level moisture, patchy clouds and an ocean flow of air.

High pressure over the western Atlantic Ocean continues to be an important player in this region as it pumps warm and humid air to the northeast from the Gulf of Mexico and is producing an onshore in this area. The daily threat of showers and storms will continue through the upcoming weekend and into the early part of next week. Locally, high temperatures will generally be confined to the mid-to-upper 80’s over the next few days with the expected abundance of low-level moisture, patchy clouds and onshore flow.

High pressure over the western Atlantic Ocean continues to be an important player for the eastern states as it pumps warm and humid air to the northeast from the Gulf of Mexico. Locally, high temperatures will generally be confined to the mid and upper 80’s over the next few days given the expected abundance of clouds and low-level moisture levels. Elsewhere, the tropical scene is quiet in the Atlantic Basin and likely will remain so for at least the next several days.

High pressure over the western Atlantic will be a main player this week and will pump warm, humid air into the eastern states on a continuous basis. Locally, temperatures will generally be confined to the mid and upper 80’s given the expected abundance of clouds and moisture. The unsettled pattern will result in a daily shot at showers and thunderstorms for the next few days. Elsewhere, the tropical scene is quiet in the Atlantic Basin and likely will remain so for at least the next several days.

High pressure over the western Atlantic will be a main player this week and will pump warm, humid air into the eastern states for much of the week. Locally, onshore flow will strengthen and winds will turn to a more southeasterly direction on the backside of the high. The unsettled pattern will result in a daily shot at showers and thunderstorms for the central part of Florida.

Tropical Storm Elsa made landfall yesterday in the northern Gulf coastal region of Florida and will push northeastward today through the Carolinas. This tropical system will then reach the Delmarva Peninsula region of the Mid-Atlantic by late tonight/early Friday and bring with it some heavy rainfall for the I-95 corridor. By later Friday, the remains of Elsa will head to the eastern part of New England and then ultimately to near Nova Scotia Canada by the early part of the upcoming weekend.

“Elsa” is a strong tropical storm this morning and has reached Florida’s northern Gulf coast. The tropical storm actually reached hurricane status late yesterday, but has since dropped just below that level with maximum sustained winds at 65 mph as it heads northward at 14 mph. Tropical Storm Elsa will cross the northern part of Florida later today and then take a turn more to the northeast by early Thursday as it moves over the southeastern states. Tropical Storm Elsa will then likely reach the Delmarva Peninsula region of the Mid-Atlantic by early Friday and bring with it an enhanced chance of heavy rainfall to the DC-to-Philly-to-NYC corridor from late Thursday into early Friday. By later Friday, the remains of Elsa will likely reach the eastern part of New England and then ultimately to near Nova Scotia Canada by early Saturday.
