DAYS 1-5 (AUGUST 17-21)
\nThe transition from a relatively cool marine layer of air to a mid summer feeling hot humid air mass will take place this weekend, with the result being more cloudiness than we’ve seen in the last couple days but still very limited rainfall, non-existent in most locations. Heat peaks on Monday, a day with no shower or storm threat as the upper atmosphere warms too much, then the heat comes down a tiny bit heading toward midweek but the storm chances increase as the upper atmosphere cools and a front approaches from the northwest.

DAYS 6-10 (AUGUST 22-26)
\nA cold front will pass through the region early August 22 with a morning shower\/thunderstorm then a drying trend and a shot of cooler\/drier air that will last through early August 24. After that, high pressure slides offshore and a late summer warm-up occurs, returning temperatures to above normal with higher humidity but dry weather August 25-26.<\/p>\n
DAYS 11-15 (AUGUST 27-31)
\nHigh pressure off the Atlantic Coast will keep it warm to hot and humid and keep most shower\/thunderstorm activity north and west of the region the couple days of the period. The last few days of the month will continue warm\/humid but with an increasing shower\/storm risk as a boundary to the west and north gets closer in response to weaker high pressure offshore.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
