The forecast indicates a continuation of quiet weather conditions for today, attributed to the slow eastward migration of the upper ridge and surface high. However, a Dense Fog advisory remains in effect until 9 AM for parts of the area.
Afternoon temperatures are expected to peak in the low 80s, accompanied by calm conditions and rising moisture levels. Cloud cover will progressively increase from the west later in the day and into the evening, inhibiting radiational cooling tonight which should limit the threat for fog.
Moving toward the weekend, we will be situated on the northern periphery of an upper ridge extending from the Gulf of Mexico to the Caribbean Sea. Persistent westerly zonal flow, coupled with a stationary frontal boundary sagging southward, will result in multiple rounds of rain and storms.
There’s a possibility of isolated severe storms during this period. High temperatures on Friday are forecasted to reach the mid to upper 80s before gradually cooling down over the weekend. Low temperatures will start in the low to mid 60s early on, potentially dropping to the mid to upper 50s by Sunday morning.
