A weak front is currently bringing only minor relief from the heat, resulting in reduced rain chances for today with just scattered storms expected, mainly near the coast. The day promises to be mostly dry with temperatures peaking in the low 90s, while overnight lows are anticipated to settle near 73 degrees under mostly clear skies.
Looking ahead, the upcoming workweek is set to bring back typical summer weather patterns. By Tuesday, humidity levels will rise, paving the way for the return of daily pop-up storms in the afternoons and evenings. Although some days might experience more storm activity than others, significant downpours are not anticipated.
In the tropics, a non-tropical area of low pressure is situated about 180 miles off the North Carolina coast, generating sporadic showers and thunderstorms. While conditions are only marginally favorable for this to evolve into a tropical or subtropical storm, it is expected to move east-northeastward away from the coast. Meanwhile, a tropical wave is predicted to emerge from the west coast of Africa in the next couple of days, with potential for gradual development later in the week as it travels across the central tropical Atlantic.
