A warm front has moved to our north this morning causing some showers and thunderstorms, this activity should move offshore and we should have a partly sunny, hot and humid day today. More showers are possible later this afternoon into this evening as a cold front crosses the area.
Friday will be less hot and humid along with partly sunny skies but another cold front may cause some afternoon and evening showers and thunderstorms.
The weekend looks quite pleasant and unlike last weekend with blistering heat this weekend will be seasonably warm with highs mostly in the upper 80s, also the humidity will be on the low side with dew points in the low 60s.
At this point most of next week will be hot and rather humid with the only chance of some showers with a weak warm front on Tuesday.
