Warmer for Friday

2007-12-27T15:04:00.000-08:00

Despite some cloud cover, temperatures will continue to turn warmer for Friday and into the weekend. Some fog will likely be around during the late night and morning hours both Friday and Saturday. Otherwise, expect temperatures to reach close to 70 Friday and into the low 70s Saturday. There may be enough moisture to spark isolated showers Saturday. Right now, it looks like the best chance for some scattered showers will be Sunday. Highs Sunday are likely to be a little lower, in the mid to upper 60s.

After a mild New Year's Eve Monday, the coldest surge of air this season so far will move in on New Year's Day along with gusty northwest winds. It will be quite cold Tuesday night through Wednesday night; currently it looks like highs will struggle to get into the 40s Wednesday with lows well down into the 20s both Tuesday night and Wednesday night. Lows in the teens may occur in some areas away from the coast.

Turning Milder to Finish the Week

2007-12-26T19:22:00.000-08:00

Cloud cover stuck around to keep it chilly on Wednesday. Expect a combination of warmer air and some sun on Thursday to bring our temperatures up a good bit. It looks like we should reach the mid 60s during the afternoon.

A series of disturbances will approach the area through Saturday and die out to our west, with some cloud cover affecting the area both Friday and Saturday. Despite some clouds, it looks like the air mass will be mild enough to support highs near 70. There is just a slight chance of showers for the beginning of the weekend, with a better looking chance on Sunday.

Drying Up on Wednesday

2007-12-25T19:18:00.000-08:00

Low pressure causing the rain Christmas Night will push northeast away from the Coastal Empire and Low Country. Clouds will linger into Wednesday, giving way to sunshine from southwest to northeast. Highs Wednesday will average near 60. Wednesday night will be fair with lows around or just under 40. Thursday will offer a mix of sun and clouds with highs in the mid 60s.

A warming trend will continue on Friday and a series of disturbances will mostly pass by to our northwest over the weekend. Some clouds will move through the area, with only slight chances of showers. Most of the time it will be either a mix of clouds and sun or mostly cloudy with highs in the low 70s Friday and Saturday.

Some Rain on Christmas Day

2007-12-24T19:26:00.001-08:00

Low pressure will develop to our east Tuesday and intensify as it moves northeast Tuesday night. Some rain is likely to develop in our area Tuesday afternoon and continue during the evening. The rain should move north of our area around midnight. The low will be moving away from us as it gets stronger, so the heavier rains associated with this system should occur further up the coast in South and North Carolina.

Temperatures should reach the mid to upper 50s Tuesday before the rain begins. Lows Tuesday night will be in the low 40s. Some sun should return Wednesday, with highs reaching near 60. A warming trend appears in store for Thursday and Friday.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Seasonably Cool for Christmas Eve

The Savannah airport recorded 7.12" of rain from midnight until mid-morning Friday, MORE THAN DOUBLE the record of any day in December since records have been kept there in the mid 1900s. That is incredible!

Anyway, now that the rain is gone, expect cool northeast breezes on Saturday along with more clouds than sun. Highs should be in the low 60s. Saturday night temperatures will drop to the low 50s.

Chilly Air on the Way

2007-11-05T15:25:00.000-08:00

We've already seen some cool air affect the area, now we will see the coldest air so far this fall season reaching us for the middle of the week.

On Tuesday, a dry cold front will pass through, but temperatures will still reach the mid 70s for highs with sunshine and some clouds. Colder air will move in Tuesday night under mostly clear skies, with lows dropping to near 40. Wednesday will be sunny and cool with highs struggling to get above 60. There is a good chance of the first frost of the season Wednesday night for areas away from the coast, mainly along and west of Interstate 95. Dry weather looks to be in store through the upcoming weekend, along with a gradual warmup.

Pleasant Days and Chilly Nights

2007-11-02T19:09:00.000-07:00

Plenty of sunshine can be expected this weekend with daytime highs in the low to mid 70s and nighttime lows dropping well down into the 40s. Breezes will be lighter than they have been, adding to the pleasant feel during the afternoons. It will be a little warmer on Monday before a cold front arrives Tuesday, bringing the coolest air of the fall season our way by Wednesday.

Tropics:

The National Hurricane Center has issued its last advisory on Hurricane Noel, although the system remains an intense winter-type low pressure area as it moves north-northeast, parallelling the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast coastline. When a system transitions from tropical to non-tropical, the wind field spreads out more to the west of the storm center. Therefore, coastal locations of the northeast are in for a very windy Saturday. The storm should move into the Canadian Maritimes with hurricane force winds Saturday night.

A Nice Fall Weekend

2007-11-02T08:06:00.000-07:00

For today, we will have a lot of sunny with breezy conditions. The high will be in the lower 70’s. Hurricane Noel will produce gusty winds along the coast with high surf and rough seas. A gale warring is in effect for today. For tonight, it will be a great night for football games; with clear skies lows will be 46-50. Saturday and Sunday we’ll have sunny blue skies with highs 72-74. I don’t see much in the way of rain anytime soon. The first of next week will be warm, but a strong cold front will pass through late Monday, the front will bring the coldest air of the season by Wednesday. Have a good Weekend!!

Tropics:

Hurricane Noel:

Noel is a hurricane this morning, but will become an extra-tropical storm by tonight/Saturday. Noel will bring strong winds to the New England coast by late tonight and Saturday. As Noel lifts northeast today it will run into cooler water temperatures and strong upper level winds. Since Noel will become extra-tropical, a much lager area will be affected by strong winds. In a hurricane the strongest winds are around the center (eye) of the storm, but for an extra-tropical low the winds are spread out much further away from the center. That is why there will be a much larger area affected by Noel. That was a little Meteorology 101 for you today.

Cooler and Breezy for Friday

2007-11-01T15:25:00.001-07:00

The combination of a new area of high pressure building in to our north and "Noel" passing well to our east Friday will produce breezy conditions for our area, mainly along the coast. Otherwise, expect a good amount of sunshine and cooler temperatures for Friday, with highs struggling to get above 70. Friday night lows will drop to 45-50 under mostly clear skies. The weekend will be sunny with highs in the low 70s and a chilly Saturday night low in the 42-45 range.

Tropics:

"Noel" has become a category one hurricane and will continue to move quickly north -northeast on Friday, away from the Bahamas and staying well to our east. Still the combination of north flow behind the storm and new high pressure building in could produce gale force gusts over the outer portions of the coastal waters. The storm itself will transition to and strengthen as a very large winter-type low as it heads north, and latest track models show it bringing very windy conditions to portions of the northeast Saturday and possibly tracking into the Canadian Maritimes Saturday night with hurricane force winds and heavy rain.

Warm First Day of November

2007-11-01T08:20:00.000-07:00

We will start the month of November off warm. For today, there will be a mix of sun and clouds with warm afternoon temperatures. The high for today will be 78-80. For tonight, we’ll have mostly clear skies and cooler temperatures. The low will drop down into the mid 50’s. A cold front will pass through the area early Friday morning. The front will bring much cooler air for Friday into the weekend. For tomorrow, there will be mostly sunny skies with highs about 10 degrees cooler than today. The high will be near 70. The weekend will be very nice with a lot of sun. The highs will be 72-74, and lows in the mid 40’s. Enjoy the warm weather today!

Tropics:

Tropical Storm Noel:

Tropical Storm Noel is producing flooding rain for the Bahamas today. Noel is producing 60 mph winds, and is now turning to the northeast. The tropical storm watch for Florida has been cancelled. Noel will get pick up by a cold front late Friday. Noel will become a non-tropical system by Saturday. The effects from Noel in our area will be the seas along the coast will be high. There is a small craft advisory that is up for the coastal waters. There have been 80 deaths from tropical storm Noel since Saturday.

Still Some Clouds, Breezy

2007-10-31T15:46:00.000-07:00

We'll see another day of some clouds in the area. There is a slight chance of a coastal shower overnight and into Thursday morning. A cold front will arrive late Thursday and clear out most of the clouds for Friday and the weekend.

Highs Thursday should reach the upper 70s, with lows dropping to the mid to upper 50s Thursday night. Friday will be cooler, with highs in the low 70s. Expect highs in the low 70s over the weekend with lows in the mid to upper 40s.

Tropics:

Tropical Storm Noel will move north from Cuba tonight and Thursday and then turn northeast and accelerate out to sea Friday and Saturday. The expected track will keep the storm center off the south Florida coast, but some rain and gusty winds can be expected there as the system passes by. The worst of the heavy rain and strong wind gusts will be felt east of the center, over the central and northwest Bahamas.

Clouds Return, Staying Breezy

2007-10-30T15:21:00.000-07:00

Clouds are moving back into the area and will be with us for Wednesday. It looks like there will only be a slight chance of a shower Wednesday and Wednesday night, so conditions should be okay for the trick-or-treaters. Highs Wednesday will reach the low to mid 70s. It will continue to be breezy as we remain between high pressure to the northeast and low pressure well to the south.

Expect a mix of clouds and some sun Thursday, with a cold front arriving late Thursday to push out most of any remaining clouds. Highs Thursday should reach the mid 70s. Seasonably cooler air will arrive behind the front for Friday into the weekend; highs will be mainly in the low 70s.

Tropics:

Tropical Storm Noel is meandering west over Cuba. In the next couple days, the system will get picked up by upper-level winds developing ahead of the cold front, and get pushed northeast and out to sea. Before then, some heavy downpours and gusty winds will affect portions of Cuba, the Bahamas, and southeast Florida.

A Nice Fall Day

2007-10-30T07:23:00.001-07:00

For today, there will be a lot of sun in the morning with some clouds by the afternoon. The high will be in the lower 70’s. The breezy conditions along the coast will continue today. For tonight, we’ll have patchy clouds with lows in the mid 50’s. On Halloween there will be some sun in the morning then becoming mostly cloudy in the afternoon. The high for Wednesday will be near 74. The trick or treat forecast will be mostly cloudy with a slight chance for a shower. The low will be near 60. A cold front will pass through on Thursday clearing things up for the weekend.

Tropics:

Tropical storm Noel will continue moving west today then turn northwest by tomorrow. Most of the computer models show Noel turning north and missing the United States. In our area we will continue to see gusty winds from a high to the north and Noel moving through the Bahamas. Noel will become a non-tropical low by the weekend.

Onshore Breezes to Continue

2007-10-29T19:25:00.000-07:00

Gusty breezes will continue out of the east-northeast through at least Thursday. Temperatures will top out near 70 on Tuesday with some sun, but clouds likely increasing again along the coast. It looks like it will be mostly cloudy Tuesday night and Wednesday, with highs Wednesday in the low 70s. There may be a couple showers on Wednesday. Thursday will offer a mix of sun and clouds with highs in the mid 70s, then look for skies to become mostly sunny by the weekend, along with pleasant days and seasonably chilly nights.

The gusty breezes will continue to cause high surf at the beach and Small Craft Advisory conditions out over the waters.

Tropics:

Tropical Storm Noel should move between west-northwest and northwest, roughly parallel to the coast of Cuba, affecting the Bahamas. Wednesday and Thursday the storm should turn to the north and northeast, ahead of a cold front, which will keep the effects of the storm well away from us. The storm may brush south Florida before heading out to sea to the northeast.

A Breezy Day

2007-10-29T07:29:00.001-07:00

For today, there will be lots of clouds in the morning with some sun in the afternoon. The high will be in the upper 60’s. It will be breezy today with a strong high pressure north of the area. The high will create gusty northeast winds today. There is a possibility of shallow coastal flooding during times of high tide. For tonight, we’ll have patchy clouds with cool temperatures. The lows for tonight will be near 50. Tuesday through Friday there will be a mix of sun and clouds. A warming trend will start tomorrow with highs in the lower 70’s. By the middle of the week temperatures will be in the mid 70’s. Have a good week!

Tropics:

Tropical Storm Noel (Knoll) developed this weekend just south of Haiti. The storm brought flooding rain to Haiti over the past two days. The tropical storm has lost some strength this morning. The storm will move into Atlantic and move over the Bahamas on Tuesday into Wednesday. A cold front will move off the southeast coast by the end of the week. The front will push the tropical storm northeast by Thursday.

Mostly Dry This Weekend

2007-10-26T15:39:00.000-07:00

Some spots will see some drizzle overnight, otherwise the rain has pulled out of the area. Drier air will work in from the west on Saturday, trying to bring some sun. The best chance to see sun will be inland areas, while the coast will be harder to clear, but hopefully will get to see some sun sometime in the afternoon. Highs Saturday will be mainly in the low 70s.

High pressure will build in from the northwest Sunday and Monday, resulting in a breezy northeast wind. Expect highs to reach the low 70s. The onshore flow will keep some clouds around heading into the new week. Also, the onshore wind combining with astronomical high tides due to the recent full moon could cause some beach erosion early next week.

A Wet Friday

2007-10-26T07:54:00.000-07:00

We have received some rain this morning. The rain will stay with us through the afternoon. For today, there will be a good chance for showers. The high will be near 72-74. For tonight, we’ll have mostly cloudy skies with a chance for showers. The low will be near 62. Saturday there will be lots of clouds in the morning with a chance for a few showers.

Wet on Friday

2007-10-25T15:42:00.000-07:00

A front offshore will creep back to the west some overnight into Friday, allowing for rain to develop along the coast. Some rain could be heavy at times Friday along the coast, while some inland areas could see no rain. Temperatures will just reach the low 70s along the coast, with some mid to upper 70s inland. Drier air should move back in Friday night and Saturday, and some sun could come out Saturday as well. Highs should be in the mid 70s Saturday. Onshore breezes should result in mostly cloudy skies Sunday, and possibly a coastal shower by the end of the day. Highs Sunday should be in the low 70s.

Cooler Temperatures

Cooler Air Pushes In

2007-10-24T19:19:00.000-07:00

A complex weather pattern will keep occasional chances of rain in the forecast. After some wet weather Wednesday, we saw temperatures drop a few degrees and this cooler air will linger the next few days, especially with a fair amount of clouds around. Thursday looks dry, as the front that caused the rain pushes a little to our east. The amount of sun that we will see is questionable. A little sun should get our temperatures into the low to mid 70s. The front will creep back closer to us Thursday night, renewing some shower chances into Friday. Highs Friday should reach the low to mid 70s. Drier air should return for Saturday, with highs reaching the mid 70s under clouds and areas of sun. Onshore breezes will then increase moisture once again Sunday, with a chance of showers by the end of the day. Some wet weather looks likely for the beginning of the new week.

A Wet Day

2007-10-24T07:57:00.000-07:00

For today, there will be more clouds than sun with a good chance for showers. The rain may be heavy at times, and there will be a chance for a thunderstorm. The high will be near 80. For tonight, we’ll have cloudy skies with a good chance for showers. The low will be in the mid 60’s. A front will stall out just off the coast. The front will allow for a chance of showers Thursday and Friday. I’m going with a rain free forecast for the weekend, but some of the computer models show showers along the coast for Saturday and Sunday. The high temperatures for the weekend will be in the mid 70’s.

Wet Weather Chances

2007-10-23T15:43:00.000-07:00

A complex system will affect the east the next few days. A front will approach from the west Wednesday, bringing a good chance of showers and possibly a thunderstorm. Temperatures should be a little lower than Tuesday due to increased cloud cover, topping out near 80 degrees. Shower chances will continue Wednesday night. Indications are some drier air may move in from the southwest on Thursday, cutting down on rain chances that day. We may see another chance of rain Friday. Highs should be a little lower Thursday and Friday, mainly in the mid to upper 70s. Lows should drop into the mid 60s.

A Warm Day

2007-10-23T05:10:00.001-07:00

The rain may stay with us into Saturday.

Scattered Wet Weather This Week

2007-10-22T15:14:00.000-07:00

We will see above average temperatures and humidity this week, with a storm system remaining nearly stationary in the Ark-La-Tex region. The best chance of rain will remain to our west, but we will be in a moist southerly flow, which will likely cause some scattered showers and t'showers to develop each day. Chances for rain look better on Wednesday than Tuesday, then a little lower at the end of the week.

Temperatures will reach the low to mid 80s the next couple days, then cool slightly to the upper 70s for the end of the week. Lows will be near 70 through Wednessday morning, then drop to the mid to upper 60s for the end of the week.

Lots of Clouds Today

2007-10-22T07:16:00.000-07:00

For today, we’ll have more clouds than sun with scattered showers. The highs will be in the lower 80’s. For tonight, there will be mostly cloudy skies with lows near 70. Through much of the workweek there will be lots of clouds with scattered showers. The highs will be near 82-84. A cold front will pass through late Wednesday that should clear things up for the end of the week. The front will allow for temperatures to drop back down closer to seasonal averages.

Beautiful Weekend Ahead

2007-10-19T15:11:00.000-07:00

A cold front will push off the coast late tonight. Behind the front there will be a high-pressure system to build into the area for the weekend. The weekend will be very nice with lots of sun and afternoon temperatures will be in the lower/mid 80’s. Have a good weekend!

Stormy Friday

2007-10-18T15:35:00.000-07:00

Showers and some thunder will roll through the area overnight. A cold front will approach on Friday, producing a stronger round of showers and thunderstorms, most likely in the afternoon. Once this second batch of weather passes, drier air will move in for the weekend.

Highs on Friday will be in the low 80s, but could be higher or lower depending on the amount of sun that can break through the clouds in the morning. Lows Friday night will drop off into the low 60s as more pleasant air moves in. Highs over the weekend will be in the low to mid 80s under plenty of sun.

Wet Weather in the Forecast

2007-10-18T07:52:00.000-07:00

The clouds and rain will roll into the area today. The best chance of rain today will be in the late afternoon. The high will be in the mid 80’s. For tonight, we’ll have lots of clouds with showers likely. The low will drop down into the lower 70’s. A cold front will move closer to the area on Friday. The front will allow for showers and storms. Some of the storms in the afternoon/evening may be strong. The high on Friday will be in the lower. 80’s. The cold front will move off the coast early Saturday morning taking the clouds and rain. The weekend will be very nice with sunny skies and mild temperatures.

Wet Weather On the Way

2007-10-17T18:16:00.000-07:00

Southerly breezes will usher in more moisture on Thursday, likely resulting in some showers and a chance of thunderstorms by the afternoon. This first round of wet weather should taper off Thursday night, then an approaching cold front will bring a good chance of showers and thunderstorms Friday afternoon and evening. The second round of weather looks to have a better chance of producing strong storms. Highs the next couple days will be in the low to mid 80s, depending on the amount of sun that can peek through.

The weekend will be sunny and less humid behind the front that moves through Friday night. Highs will be in the mid 80s with nighttime lows dropping to the upper 50s Sunday morning.

Another Warm Day

2007-10-17T07:55:00.000-07:00

We will have another warm day, but wet weather is on its way. For today, there will be a mix of sun and clouds with highs in the mid 80’s.

A cold front will pass through on Friday. The front will bring a chance for storms Friday afternoon/evening. The weekend will be sunny and warm.

Warmer and More Humid

2007-10-16T15:42:00.000-07:00

Temperatures and humidity are on the increase across the area. Lows overnight will be in the mid to upper 60s and some fog is possible. Expect a mix of sun and clouds Wednesday, and it should be a couple degrees warmer, with highs in the mid 80s. Light breezes will turn more to the south on Thursday, offering a further increase in moisture, resulting in some showers and possibly a thundershower in the area. More clouds will be around, but highs should still make the low to mid 80s. A cold front will be approaching Friday, but it looks like it may start drying up ahead of the front, so I just see maybe a couple showers in the area, otherwise a mix of sun and clouds with highs in the mid 80s.

The weekend will be dry with warm daytime highs in the mid 80s. Lower humidity behind the above front will cause lows to drop into the upper 50s in some spots Saturday night. The next chance of wet weather looks to be sometime on Monday.

Warming Up Some

2007-10-15T18:29:00.000-07:00

Temperatures are on the upswing following some rather cool nights we saw over the weekend. Higher humidity will keep lows mostly above 60 the rest of the week. Daytime highs will reach the low 80s Tuesday, then go into the mid 80s for Wednesday through Friday.

Sky cover will be a mix of sun and clouds. An isolated shower is possible over the next couple days due to a moist flow of air coming off the ocean. As a cold front approaches from the west late this week, look for a better chance of showers and possibly a thunderstorm Thursday and Friday.

A Pleasant Fall Weekend

2007-10-12T15:03:00.000-07:00

High pressure to our north will provide splendid weather this weekend. Expect mostly clear skies, with high temperatures reaching the upper 70s Saturday and the low 80s Sunday.

Wet Weather Lingers

2007-10-04T14:52:00.000-07:00

While it was a lousy day across the area, the rain did not fall hard enough to cause any serious problems. Shower chances will continue Friday and Saturday while a moist flow continues out of the east. While downpours will be possible, widespread heavy rain is not expected. Skies will remain mostly cloudy. A little sun at times may boost the temperature into the low 80s the next couple days. Drier air is expected to push in on Sunday, and with more sun, temperatures should reach the mid 80s.

Tropics:

An area of disturbed weather near the Bahamas will move west-southwest through the weekend. Upper level winds are currently unfavorable for development. Some development may eventually occur near western Cuba or the Yucatan Peninsula by early next week.

Another Wet Day

2007-10-04T06:11:00.000-07:00

* Flood Watch for Today * For today, we will continue to see the onshore flow that will allow for more rain today. The rain will be heavy at times in the afternoon. Some areas may receive 2-3” of rain. The afternoon high will be near 80. For tonight, we’ll have cloudy skies with scattered showers. The low will be in the lower 70’s. The chances of rain will continue for Friday and Saturday. The afternoon high will be in the mid 80’s by the weekend.

Tropics:

Possible Tropical Development (92 L):

There is an area of showers and storms northeast of the Bahamas. There is a chance we could have tropical development in the Bahamas this weekend. The low will move west into the Gulf of Mexico. Some of the computer models show the low becoming a tropical storm by the first of next week. We will be watching this closely, but I don’t see this having an impact on our weather.

More Soaking Rains

2007-10-03T15:11:00.001-07:00

High pressure to the north and the remnants of an old frontal boundary in the area are providing a very moist easterly flow of air. Moderate to heavy rains affected the area today, most widespread near the coast. Expect more rain to develop on Thursday, and some of it will likely be heavy again. This could result in localized flooding, so please exercise caution on the roads. Shower chances will continue Friday and Saturday, with drier air expected to move in Sunday and Monday. Temperatures will be held down by clouds and rain, with highs struggling to reach 80 on Thursday. A little more sun may peak through at times Friday and Saturday, allowing highs to reach the low to mid 80s.

Tropics:

Low pressure in the Gulf of Mexico will move northwest towards the Louisiana coast Thursday and Friday before dissipating.

Low pressure is expected to develop east of the Bahamas Thursday and begin tracking west. The system may become a tropical depression by the end of the week. Upper level steering flow should point this system between south Florida and Cuba and into the southern Gulf of Mexico over the weekend.

A Wet Wednesday

2007-10-03T07:50:00.000-07:00

There will be on and off showers through the day. The rain may be heavy at times. Some areas will pick up over 1.00” of rain. The clouds will hold the temperatures down into the lower 80’s. For tonight, we’ll have cloudy skies with scattered showers. The low will be in the lower 70’s. The wet weather will continue for Thursday. The forecast for Thursday will be mostly cloudy with a good chance for rain, with highs in the lower 80’s. The models continue to show the wet weather for Friday and Saturday.

Tropics:

Tropical Development (92 L):

The models are showing that a tropical system will develop over the weekend in the Bahamas or near Cuba. The track of the low should be SW with time, taking the low into the southern Gulf of Mexico. There will be a strong high pressure to build to the north of the low; the high will drive the low to the west. As of right now, I don’t see this being a problem to our area.

Occasional Wet Weather

2007-10-02T15:34:00.000-07:00

Onshore breezes will continue to bring in clouds and some showers from off the ocean. The breezes will become lighter than they have been, so high surf conditions will improve. Wednesday looks to feature more clouds than sun with a few showers. Highs will reach near 84. Scattered showers can be expected Wednesday night and Thursday, with a low near 70 and highs to near 86. Expect warm and humid conditions for Friday and the weekend with a bit of an onshore breeze continuing. A few showers are possible again Friday, with less chance over the weekend. Highs should reach at least the mid 80s.

Tropics:

Low pressure is moving west of south Florida and is projected to move northwest through the Gulf of Mexico reaching the central or western Gulf coast late this week. Some development into a depression or named storm is possible.

There is a low pressure in south Florida this morning. The low will move west over the next few days. There is a chance that the low could become a tropical system late this week. The low will need to overcome strong upper level winds and a lot of dry air in the Gulf of Mexico.

Some Moisture to Increase

2007-10-01T18:20:00.000-07:00

Breezes from the ocean the next couple days will gradually increase moisture levels, resulting in an increase in clouds and then some showers affecting the area. The best chance for showers looks to be Tuesday night and Wednesday. There will be a lingering chance of showers Thursday and possibly beyond as the humidity will return to near-summer levels. Highs Tuesday and Wednesday will be in the low to mid 80s. Lows will start having a hard time dropping below 70 beginning Tuesday night.

Tropics:

An area of disturbed weather in the Bahamas will move west into the Gulf of Mexico and some tropical development is possible. This system is currently projected to arrive on the central or western Gulf coast later in the week.
