Hot and humid....changes ahead...

Yesterday we saw low to mid 90s return to the region. Today, I anticipate a lot of mid to even some upper 90s for highs, and when you factor in the humidity, heat index levels will exceed 100 degrees at times this afternoon.

Just like yesterday, there will likely be a few showers develop, but they will be very limited in nature, and most spots will be dry.

Tomorrow, I will mention a better chance of some showers and storms, mainly from late afternoon into the evening. It will still be hot as well with highs in the mid to even upper 90s again.

A frontal boundary will drop in here from the north Thursday and Friday, and both days will feature good chances of showers and storms. Highs will back down into the low to mid 90s Thursday and lower 90s Friday.

It appears that another one of our cold air damming regimes will set up by Saturday. If that occurs, it will mean cooler temps and some showers at times.

The daily chance of showers and storms will remain high Sunday into early next work week.

Tropics...

The tropical wave out in the Atlantic could get classified as a tropical system at any point, but it is a 'fish storm,' meaning it will turn north in the Atlantic.

Of greater interest is an area of low pressure developing just northwest of the Florida Keys. A lot of modeling really develops this one nicely, and it could become a tropical storm over the next couple of days.

This system will likely head toward the central Gulf coast later this week. Please see today's video, docked above, so lots of details and graphics on this system.
