Highlights:
- Taste of early fall continues (for now)
- Moisture slowly returns this weekend
- Heat builds this weekend and grows hotter next week
After a couple days of variably cloudy skies, we should see more in the way of sunshine as we get set to wrap up the work week. Conditions will remain unseasonably pleasant to be outdoors.
We’ll begin to transition to warmer and more humid times this weekend and with a disturbance nearby, an isolated to widely scattered shower or thunderstorm has to be included in our forecast. Most should remain rain-free, however.
Overall dry and increasingly hot conditions will be the rule next week as ridging develops over the Great Lakes region. Folks longing for more summer before fall truly sets in look to have their wish granted over the upcoming couple weeks ahead.
In the tropics, all eyes remain on Erika. Though many questions remain, folks from the east coast of Florida up along the Southeast coast should remain abreast of the latest developments. It’s likely Erika will go through a strengthening process over the next couple days.
Upcoming 7-Day Rainfall Forecast: 0.10″ – 0.25″
