Friday Memorial Day Weekend Update: Hot & Humid, Rain Monday

The summer weather we all have been waiting for is here. Temps will hover close to 90 over the next 3 days with humid conditions. Sunny skies are to be expect with maybe a stray shower or storm. This is all due to an upper level ridge of high pressure allowing the warm air from the south to flow into our area..

This ridge stays in place until Memorial Day where a cold front will enter our area causing showers and storms. Another interesting feature will be a tropical system that might impact the southeast. How this tropical system interacts with the cold front will be something to watch.  Right now you can see the models showing both features clearly on Monday. The low near South Carolina is the tropical system.

There is the chance that the cold front can help bring all the moisture from the tropical system north causing enhanced rainfall. 

Will comment more on that this weekend.

Enjoy the nice weather!
