Good morning everyone!
Another muggy early morning as temperatures are in the mid 70s in the Clifton area down to 70 further inland. There are showers in the area with some heavy downpours. Humidity remains high with dew points in the 70s. Winds are from the southeast with some gusts to 20 mph. Right now here in Clifton we are having a very heavy downpour.
Today we will have showers throughout the day and night, some of the showers will be heavy and a flood advisory is in effect. Rainfall amounts will average 1-2 inches with higher amounts possible especially further inland. Temperatures with the clouds and rain will be lower but the humidity will remain high.
Shower chances continue Thursday and Friday as strong high pressure continues offshore and a front approaches from the west. Winds will be more southwesterly giving us warmer temperatures and the humidity will remain high.
The front will pass through early Saturday morning with some lingering showers. Dry weather with warm temperatures by Saturday afternoon through Sunday with lower humidity.
The dry weather will be short lived as we go back to the pattern that will likely give us more rain early next week along with higher humidity.
