DAYS 1-5 (SEPTEMBER 5-9)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It’s late summer and after a long meteorological summer of unsettled weather, we have a long stretch of fair, summertime weather in progress. This continues into late week too as a ridge of high pressure at upper levels centered to our west drifts to the east, crossing the region by Thursday and sliding offshore by Friday. Some interior sections make a run at a heatwave (3 days with high temps of 90 or higher). Although this won’t qualify as intense heat, it’ll feel pretty hot with the higher humidity coming in. An approaching trough will trigger thunderstorms to our west later Thursday and at least the remnant cloudiness will make it here later that day, and maybe a stray lingering shower or storm at night, with something similar by later Friday too, but largely it’s a fair weather stretch through Friday, and maybe even for at least part of the area Saturday with the ridge, which will then be to our east, being strong enough to hold activity from an approaching frontal boundary back mostly in western portions of our region. Fine-tuning will be required for that part of the forecast as we get closer to the weekend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TODAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 83-90. Dew point middle to upper 60s. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TONIGHT: Mostly clear. Fog patches in lowest elevations. Lows 63-70. Dew point 60s. Wind SW up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
WEDNESDAY: Mostly sunny to partly cloudy. Highs 84-91. Dew point 60s. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Patchy fog in lower elevations. Lows 63-70. Dew point 60s. Wind SW up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
THURSDAY: Partly sunny. Highs 86-93. Dew point 60s. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
THURSDAY NIGHT: Variably cloudy. Chance of a shower or thunderstorm. Areas of fog. Lows 63-70. Dew point 60s. Wind SW up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
FRIDAY: Partly sunny. Chance of a late-day shower and thunderstorm favoring western areas. Highs 84-91. Dew point 60s. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
FRIDAY NIGHT: Variably cloudy. Chance of a shower or thunderstorm. Areas of fog. Lows 64-71. Dew point 60s. Wind SW up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
SATURDAY: Partly sunny. A few showers\/thunderstorms possible mainlyin the afternoon and mainly in western portions of the region. Highs 82-89. Dew point 60s. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 6-10 (SEPTEMBER 10-14)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Current idea is that high pressure sits offshore long enough to slow a frontal boundary down so it doesn’t completely cross the region until later September 11, leaving the region vulnerable to showers\/thunderstorms with fairly high humidity until then. Fair weather follows for the middle of next week with temperatures not as warm, but still near to above normal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (SEPTEMBER 15-19)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A tropical system will possibly be passing east of our region offshore around the start of this period which may at least rough-up the coastal waters but the very early idea is that a direct impact is highly unlikely. Otherwise a mostly fair weather pattern is expected with near to above normal temperatures.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
