Quiet weather will dominate much of the upcoming work week.
High pressure builds in for Monday and Tuesday with sunshine, low humidity and temperatures that are a little below normal for late July. Highs will only be in the 70s and lower 80s both days. With clear skies and diminishing winds tonight we could have ideal conditions for radiational cooling, resulting in low temperatures dropping into the 50s, with some 40s in the normally colder locations. As the high slides offshore on Wednesday temperatures will start to moderate, but the heat and humidity will really make a comeback for Thursday, and especially on Friday. Temperatures will get well into the 90s on Friday, but when the humidity is factored in it will feel like it is over 100 degrees in the afternoon. An approaching cold front may trigger some showers and thunderstorms Friday afternoon, but it looks like the front will stall out nearby and remain there for the weekend. That means it will remain humid with a daily chance for showers and thunderstorms. Temperatures will likely stay quite warm, but how hot it gets each day will depend on the amount of sunshine we see.
