Thursday’s Forecast:

It is going to be a muggy and warm Thursday. We’ll climb to the mid-90s in the afternoon with a heat index around 103°. There is a 20% chance of a shower, but most will stay dry.

Next Cold Front:

Our next cold front will move into the area early next week. This will bring a 40% chance for showers and storms Late Monday and into Tuesday.

Although this front will not bring a big cool down, it will bring rain chances, lower humidity and it will bring our highs to the lower-90s for a few days.

Tracking the Tropics:

The Gulf of Mexico is storm free, but there are a few areas we are watching in the Atlantic. Nigel is a category 1 hurricane. It will move north through the Atlantic - not making a direct hit on the U.S. or Canada. There is another area to watch in the Atlantic which has a 70% chance to become Ophelia or Philippe in the next few days.

The area off the SE coast currently has a medium chance for tropical development. The warm Atlantic waters could aid in tropical development. It will impact the Georgia/Carolina coast lines Friday and this weekend with heavy rain.

Rain chances this week are small but we may get a passing sea breeze shower or storm by the coast Thursday-Sunday. We’re watching a front that will bring rain Monday and Tuesday. It will not lower temperatures. In fact, it may not move all the way through which would keep the humidity around through Friday of next week.
