No complaints in the weather department for Tuesday as high pressure remains the main weather driver with deep-layer dry air in place across the region. Temperatures start on the cool side once again, with lows bottoming out in the low 50s (with perhaps a few readings in the upper 40s in more rural and sheltered areas). We’ll warm to the mid-to-upper 70s under predominantly sunny skies in advance of a dry front that comes through early Wednesday morning.

Another generally quiet week of weather lies ahead as high pressure remains the primary weather driver across the Southeast with a reinforcing shot of cooler air for the second half of the week.

High pressure remains the main weather player in our neck of the woods, keeping things generally quiet and seasonable for Friday and the weekend. You may need a light hoodie or somesuch Friday morning as lows bottom out to the low 50s in the metro and perhaps into the 40s further inland and in more rural locations. Highs Friday peak in the low 70s with plenty of sunshine expected.

High pressure starts to move a bit more overhead Saturday and then starts to slip offshore on Sunday. This will lead to gradually warming temperatures through the weekend; mid-70s Saturday while we should touch 80° on Sunday. Generally speaking, mostly sunny skies will prevail, though there could be an uptick in cloud cover later Sunday as a front approaches. A stray shower will be possible overnight Sunday into early Monday morning, but otherwise, we look to stay dry well into next week.

Mother Nature’s apology for the nor’easter continues Thursday with another day of comfortable temperatures and plenty of sunshine expected. A weak, dry front moves by early in the day, and so we should see temperatures start and peak a little cooler than we did on Wednesday. Expect lows in the mid-to-upper 50s warming to the mid-70s under mostly sunny skies. Winds will swing around to the northeast and pick up a little bit, and this could drive some minor coastal flooding with the early evening high tide cycle. A Coastal Flood Advisory is possible, but impacts beyond the most vulnerable locations downtown will be minimal.

Pleasant weather continues for the rest of the work week as high pressure remains in control. A dry front will move through overnight Wednesday into early Thursday, bringing along a reinforcing shot of cooler and drier air that will make for a crisp start on Friday.

The nor’easter that has made for several soggy days across the metro will finally be pulling away on Monday, yielding a beautiful week of weather across the area with plenty of sun and comfortable temperatures.
