We are currently in a pattern of no heat, though it is muggy, and somewhat unsettled weather. This will continue through the middle of the coming week as a trough of low pressure slowly moves across the northeastern US. This unsettled and muggy stretch may climax with a significant rain event on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
When we get to Thursday, Friday, and the start of the weekend, a ridge of high pressure will bring drier weather, but by Sunday, we may be back into wet weather once again. The reason for that is that, unlike I thought the other day, the overall pattern is not going to change too much through the middle of this month. Eventually, I do expect a strengthening ridge of high pressure in the western Atlantic to bring a bout of classic summertime weather sometime during the second half of August.<\/p>\n
