Forecast Discussion

It's been a while since we have said "frontal passage". Today's the day we can say it again as a front moves across the Appalachians and stalls near the Carolina Coast early next week. A secondary front moves through with no fanfare early Monday morning.

Saturday is cloudy and muggy with widespread showers and storms. Isolated heavy rain is possible.

The front will be just to our east Sunday. We'll have lots of clouds with isolated showers and thundershowers. Monday and Tuesday have more sun but still the potential for an isolated shower or thundershower.

Wednesday through Friday, the front will be stationary to our east but close enough to increase humidity and with daytime heating, trigger scattered mostly afternoon showers and thundershowers.

Tropical Storm Kyle is off the New England Coast kicking up the surf. Tropical Storm Josephine is far out in the Atlantic. The only threat to land from either is a weakened Josephine near Bermuda by the middle of next week.
