Chief Meteorologist Patrick Rockey’s First Warning Forecast
Area beaches were a lot quieter today as folks went back to work at school.
But beach weather is not going away anytime soon.
As a matter of fact, we’ve got some really hot days ahead.
High pressure will continue to dominate our weather for the next few days, meaning, plenty of sunshine and plenty of heat and humidity.
We are expecting high temperatures in the low-to-mid 90s on Wednesday and Thursday under partly cloudy to mostly sunny skies.
When you factor in the humidity, it will feel like between 100° and 105°.
A pair of cold fronts will slowly cross the region this weekend, bringing a chance for scattered showers and thunderstorms beginning on Friday.
That will allow temperatures to drop from around 90 on Friday to the low-to-mid 80s by Sunday.
And we will really feel the effects of those cold fronts next week with temperatures easing into the upper 70s and the lower 80s.
As a matter of fact, the longer range forecast for next week is showing a long stretch of below-normal temperatures. Stay tuned.
