The annual Perseid meteor shower began on July 17th and will continue through August 23rd, but the peak viewing times will be during the late-night hours on Tuesday, August 12th to the pre-dawn hours of Wednesday, August 13th. The Perseid meteor shower comes every July/August as the Earth passes through a cloud of dust that comes from Comet Swift-Tuttle as it approaches the sun. The moon will be somewhat of a hindrance this year as it will be just beyond its full moon phase which took place on August 9th. One special bonus for sky watchers, however, will be the conjunction of Venus and Jupiter visible in the eastern sky during the pre-dawn hours so look for that feature as well early Wednesday.

High pressure centered over southeastern Canada will shift slowly offshore during the next couple of days and it will continue to influence the weather around here. Given the position of the high, there will be a continuing broad low-level flow of air from the ocean (i.e., east-to-northeast winds) into the northeastern states and this will keep temperatures in check right through the weekend. By the middle of next week, this high will weaken and shift farther offshore opening the door for somewhat more unsettled weather to return to the region.

Hot and dry conditions will persist for another day in the Denver metro region, but there will be some relief for the weekend. Temperatures today can peak in the upper 90’s later today, but likely will top out in the upper 80’s on Saturday and Sunday. The chance of scattered afternoon and evening showers and thunderstorms will return for the weekend, but it looks dry again for the early part of next week.

High pressure centered over southeastern Canada will shift slowly offshore during the next couple of days and it will continue to have a positive effect on the weather around here. Given the position of the high, there will be a continuing low-level flow of air from the ocean (i.e., east-to-northeast winds) and this will keep temperatures in check right through the weekend. There is a tropical wave to monitor sitting just off the Carolina coastline, but odds favor it making a move to the northeast rather than to the northwest reducing its chances greatly for impacting the Mid-Atlantic region.

High pressure centered over southeastern Canada will continue to have an influence on the weather around here for another few days. Given the position of the high, there will be a consistent low-level flow of air from the ocean (i.e., east-to-northeast winds) and this will keep temperatures in check for the next few days. This high shifts offshore over the weekend and it’ll turn a bit warmer and more humid, but no intense heat is in sight. There will be some tropical moisture sitting just off the coast, but odds favor it staying out there and not making a move to the north and west.
