Overall, a settled weekend with good weather and water conditions. There is not much to write about for this weekend. Saturday and Sunday will be dry with more sun than clouds. Some patchy fog is likely on Saturday Night and Sunday Morning. Highs will be in the 60’s with overnight lows in the 40’s and 50’s. Saturday will start off breezy, but winds will settle throughout the day. Water conditions will be cautious with Small Craft Advisories to start the weekend, but will improve as winds subside and seas settle by Saturday Afternoon and Night. Sunday will have good water conditions. Surf and conditions will be good all weekend. Water temperatures are steady in the 60’s. UV Index will be Low to Moderate at 3-5/15.
High pressure will build across the area through the weekend before moving offshore on Monday. A cold front is forecast to cross the region Tuesday, briefly followed by high pressure on Wednesday. Another cold front may move through the area late in the week.
Next week will start off with chances of showers for Monday and Tuesday followed by dry conditions for the rest of the week. Highs will be in the 60’s and 70’s with overnight lows in the 40’s and 50’s. Water, surf and beach conditions will be good to borderline through Wednesday becoming borderline to cautious for Thursday and Friday.
The tropics are quiet again in the Atlantic.
Have a great weekend and thanks for reading!
