DAYS 1-5 (AUGUST 1-5)
\nAs August gets underway we’ll be under the influence of high pressure which had its origins in Canada and has some drier and slightly cooler air with it, giving the region a break from the humid heat that dominated the last few days of July. We’ll have to watch for a few showers near a sea breeze boundary this afternoon but overall it will be a dry day. As we get into the weekend, the high will slip offshore allowing the humidity to bump up somewhat, but a trough will slide through the region during this time, maybe kicking off a shower or thunderstorm in a few areas. Behind this another high pressure area will build in with the air quite comfortable again by Monday.

DAYS 11-15 (AUGUST 11-15)
\nThe upper pattern will feature high pressure ridging further west in the US and well off the Atlantic Coast which will allow the jet stream to sink a little further south, preventing major heat and bringing occasional shower and thunderstorm threats for mid August.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
