The weekend forecast will generally run on the cool side, particularly on Saturday, with a few showers possible at times. High pressure remains wedged into the area, and moisture trapped beneath the wedge inversion aloft will keep cloud cover and a few light showers in the forecast. Much like Friday, highs will likely not exceed 70° with the lack of insolation and cool northeasterly winds continuing to reinforce the wedge.

We should see a little bit more sunshine — and a little more warmth as a result — on Sunday as the wedge begins to erode. Still, a few showers will be possible at times, and one should not 100% trust the wedge to erode when it is supposed to.

Overall, you’ll want to have a hoodie or light jacket both days, and be ready to evade a few light showers, but it won’t be enough to cause major problems.

Really not much to write home about weather-wise this weekend: Seasonable weather is in store for the weekend with passing clouds from time to time. Saturday gets us off to a cool start with lows bottoming out in the mid-40s before highs recover to the mid-70s with passing clouds. Sunday gets off to a slightly warmer start in the mid-50s as highs warm back into the mid-70s in the afternoon with a little more sunshine. All in all, no concerns — get out and enjoy!

There’s not much else to say about this forecast than to try to get outside this weekend, because it looks absolutely stellar. Saturday’s low around 50° will be very worthy of longer sleeves to start, but you’ll be able to jettison those by midday as highs head to around 80° in the afternoon. We’ll run a click warmer on Sunday as winds go a little more southwesterly, but it’ll otherwise be very close to what we’ll experience on Saturday. I hope you enjoy!

We have a calm and comfortably warm weekend of weather ahead, which will help aid recovery efforts after the lashing Ian gave our area on Friday. We’ll have very seasonally appropriate starts to each day, with lows in the mid-50s on Saturday and lows in the upper 50s on Sunday, followed by highs getting into the upper 70s in the afternoon. Dewpoints will be comfortable, generally running in the upper 50s to low 60s.

There’s been some concerns about lingering tidal effects from Ian today, but offshore flow will keep us well out of jeopardy of broaching any coastal flood thresholds over the next several days. The only lingering effect will be a moderate risk of rip currents through the weekend, so be aware of this if you’re thinking of getting into the Atlantic waters.

Overall, aside from a slight chance of a shower on Monday, we have several days to dry out to start October. This will be quite beneficial — recovering from a storm can be difficult, especially if you have sustained damage, and the last thing you want is more bad weather on top.

High pressure will dominate the pattern this weekend, bringing us excellent weather for outdoor activities.

Saturday will start out as cool as it’s been since mid-May, with lows expected to bottom out in the mid-50s away from the locally warmer coast. Cloud-free skies should persist for much of the day as temperatures head to the low 80s in the afternoon. Winds will be down compared to what we saw Friday, too, which should make it a little easier to enjoy a meal outdoors with a lower risk of unintentional napkin aviation.

High pressure will begin to slip offshore Saturday night into Sunday, and this will make Sunday’s start feel about 5-10° warmer on average across the area with lows bottoming out around the mid-60s. Mostly sunny skies will persist, though, and highs will generally top out in the mid-80s. It’ll be a touch more humid, but certainly not anything tremendously uncomfortable.

The only hazard we’ll need to really be concerned with this weekend is a lingering high risk for rip currents thanks to continued swell from Hurricane Fiona. Inexperienced swimmers should continue to avoid the Atlantic waters this weekend as a result.

We’ve got a pleasant weekend ahead, despite humidity creeping back up for Sunday with the specter of a stray shower or two in the mix.

Saturday’s the pick day, in my view: it’ll be the last day of the lower humidity we’ve been experiencing over the past few days, which will keep that high of 86° feeling like it’s 86°. On Sunday, we’ll see a little bit more in the way of humidity working back into the area as dewpoints creep back up to around 70° in the afternoon, causing that high of 86° to feel closer to 90-91°. A stray shower isn’t out of the question, but the vast majority of us look to stay dry.

The weather pattern remains fairly active heading into the weekend, and there will be a continued risk for tidal flooding around times of high tide. It won’t rain all the time, though.

We enter Saturday with a front draped near the coast. This front will begin to lift northward during the day; this will focus the potential for heavier rain a little more inland than we’ve seen the past couple days. We may have a few showers around in the morning, but expect more robust showers and thunderstorms to initiate in the vicinity of the front by mid-afternoon. As mentioned, these will be on and off storms, and it won’t rain all day. Be flexible with outdoor plans and be ready to head inside at a moment’s notice in case storms threaten. Temperatures will head into the mid-80s ahead of showers and storms as we get on the warmer side of the front.

We’ll start to see some changes in the upper-air configuration on Sunday as the cutoff low starts to open up and lift out as a trough comes out of the central US. The moisture tap will remain wide open, and with the additional energy from the trough, we should see on and off showers and thunderstorms particularly in the afternoon and evening hours. Heavy rain remains a chief concern as precipitable water values range from 2-2.2″. Temperatures will run in the mid-80s once again ahead of any showers and storms.

We will still be contending with the risk for tidal flooding around times of high tide. Minor flooding will be possible Saturday morning around 7-11am, while moderate flooding will become a possibility Saturday evening around 7-11pm. Another couple rounds of minor flooding will be possible again with Sunday’s high tides, though we’ll see less severity with those overall as winds start to lose some of that more easterly onshore component.

Our weather looks to stay somewhat unsettled this weekend as we remain within a somewhat stormy pattern across the eastern US. If I’m picking a day for outdoor activities, I like Saturday; a little drier air will punch down into the area from the north and should help shunt the better rain chances southward. That being said, scattered showers and a few thunderstorms should still develop along and ahead of the seabreeze in the afternoon, so stay on guard if you do have outdoor plans. It’ll be a bit warmer than it’s been the past few days, with highs reaching into the upper 80s courtesy of a little bit more sunshine than we’ve seen recently.

Sunday should see a little greater shower and storm coverage as more moisture spreads back into the area. The best chance for showers and storms will be in the afternoon, but guidance suggests the potential for rain as early as mid-morning. Don’t write off any outdoor plans just yet, though — trends will become more established tomorrow. Highs will run a touch cooler with more cloud cover and storms expected — generally expect mid-80s in the afternoon.

A pretty good-looking mid-August weekend is inbound as cooler and drier air works in behind a cold front. After a rather nice start to the day with lows bottoming out in the upper 60s, temperatures will generally warm into the mid-80s each afternoon under partly cloudy skies. Expect Saturday to feel a little more humid than Sunday; Sunday’s dewpoints will mix out to the low 60s in the afternoon, making for an excellent day to head out to events like the Sunday Brunch Farmers Market or Second Sunday on King Street.

The reprieve from humidity and rain chances will be short-lived; we’re back in it by Tuesday. But let’s not worry about such things with such a nice weekend ahead, right? Enjoy it!

Hot and humid conditions continue this weekend as temperatures head back to around 90° each afternoon. Mix in the humidity and it’ll feel closer to 105° on Saturday and 102° on Sunday. Scattered showers and thunderstorms will remain in the forecast primarily in the afternoons, with the risk for locally heavy rain and isolated bouts of flooding to continue. A stronger storm or two with gusty winds is certainly on the table, as well. Lightning will make every thunderstorm dangerous, so remember to head indoors if you’re hearing thunder. Overall, with high pressure beginning to reassert itself, we should see a little less coverage of showers and storms overall. Storms will certainly not be an all-day thing — just something to plan around.

We turn progressively warmer and less rainy (finally!) next week as high pressure continues to build in at the surface and aloft. Mid-90s will be common by Wednesday, with isolated to scattered storms along and ahead of the seabreeze possible each afternoon. But that’s next week; no reason to prematurely induce Sunday Scaries. Enjoy the weekend!
