A cold front is working its way through the region this morning and it’ll stall out across southern Virginia by tonight. It’ll turn out sharply cooler today and on Tuesday as well on the back side of the frontal system and there will be a stiff northeast wind. Meanwhile, Hurricane Erin - now a category 4 “major” storm - will stay well offshore and pass by to the east of here at mid-week. However, rip currents, rough surf, high waves, and beach erosion will be a problem along much of the eastern seaboard during the next several days. High pressure takes control of the weather for the second half of the week and provide us with continued comfortable temperatures for this time of year in the Thursday, Friday, Saturday time period.

Hot weather is in store for the region during the next few days with high temperatures reaching the lower 90’s this afternoon and perhaps the middle-to-upper 90’s at mid-week. A frontal system should bring some relief by the end of the week and there will be an increased chance of showers and thunderstorms.

A weak front that pushed into the area on Thursday will hang around for the next few days keeping it somewhat unsettled and it’ll stay quite warm, but no sustained intense heat is in sight. While most of the time will be rain-free from today through the weekend, a shower or thunderstorm can pop up from time-to-time. Temperatures will be comfortable during the early part of next week following the passage of a cold frontal system on Sunday night.

Tropical Storm Erin appears better organized today and has indeed undergone a bit of strengthening with maximum sustained winds now clocked at 60 mph as it churns to the west at around 17 mph. Over the next few days, Tropical Storm Erin will push over increasingly warm waters of the southwest Atlantic Ocean and atmospheric conditions will become more favorable for intensification (less dry air, less wind shear). As a result, significant and rapid intensification is on the table for Erin which could take it from its current tropical storm status to hurricane (category 1) classification on Friday and then to “major” hurricane status (category 3 or higher) later Saturday. It is at this time that the overall flow aloft should allow for Erin to begin a curve away from the east coast …first to the northwest then to the north and ultimately to the northeast and out over the open waters of the North Atlantic. Two key players in this expected curve of Erin will be an upper-level ridge over eastern Canada that will tend to get displaced by an upper-level trough of low pressure...all of these systems still need to be closely monitored as small changes can potentially have big impacts on some coastal sections.
