Rest of the work week: More sunshine

/ October 22, 2024 at 8:03 PM

Our stretch of dry and quiet weather will continue as we close out the work week (and beyond). Generally expect lows in the 50s to yield to highs in the low 80s each afternoon with a few passing clouds from time to time. A dry front gets through Thursday, and that will send the dewpoint a little lower as well as shave a couple degrees off Friday’s temperatures. Other than that, there’s really not much to talk about. Even the tropics are quiet: there’s no named storms in the Atlantic after Oscar dissipated earlier today, and there’s no current concern for any development in the next week.

Folks looking for cooler weather should look toward the second half of the weekend into early next week as a backdoor front moves across the area late Saturday into Sunday morning. This will cause high pressure to wedge southward, and temperatures will come down several degrees from where they’ve been. We could see an increase in cloud cover and maybe even a rogue shower early next week, but otherwise, dry weather prevails.
