Here’s today’s Bottom Line
Quiet weather will continue today, tomorrow, and Saturday thanks to a rather unusual weather pattern for the end of July. A rather significant cut-off low pressure center (one that is “cut off” from the typical atmospheric flow) will continue to push northerly breezes over our area keeping dry weather (and low humidity!) in place.
Moisture starts to build back in on Saturday — it’ll be noticeably more humid — before a warm front pushes inland from the coast on Sunday. A wave of low pressure will likely lift along the front bringing a high likelihood of showers and storms Sunday night through Monday night.
As for the tropics, it’s crickets for at least the next 7 days.
