Another mixed week for weather, but water conditions will be hazardous to cautious all week. Monday Day will be dry with showers starting overnight and into Tuesday. Wednesday will be dry, Thursday will have chances of showers and Friday will be dry. Highs will be in the 70’s with 80’s on Thursday. Lows will range from the 40’s to 60’s. Water conditions will be hazardous through Tuesday and then cautious for the rest of the week. Monday and Tuesday will have Gale and Tropical Storm Warnings with winds to 50 knots and seas offshore to 20 feet, as most likely Tropical Storm Irma moves northeast off the coast. Surf and beach conditions will be hazardous through Tuesday, then cautious with dangerous waters with High Risk of Rip Currents through Tuesday and then at a minimum a Moderate Risk for the rest of the week. Water temperatures have dropped a couple of degrees. UV Index will be Low to High at 1-7/15.
High pressure centered over Quebec will continue to influence the weather in the Mid-Atlantic region through Monday. An area of low pressure is expected to deepen as it moves northeastward along the Southeastern U.S. coast early this week. The low should reach the Outer Banks of North Carolina on Tuesday and then turn out to sea while continuing to strengthen Tuesday night and Wednesday. A cold front moves through the region Thursday. High pressure returns for Friday and Saturday. The high should eventually move offshore late next weekend while the next cold front approaches from the northwest.
Now, Tropical Storm Harvey is still creating dangerous flooding conditions across much of South Texas. Tropical Depression Ten has formed just east of Florida. This was the area of invest over Florida before the weekend. This area will quickly develop into a potential Tropical Storm or Hurricane by Monday and into Tuesday. It will bring some affects to Coastal Carolina, as well as some rain to other areas and poor water conditions while moving off to the Northeast and out to sea. Another area of invest is being watched off of Africa. We are just past the peak of the Atlantic Tropics Season, and historically, this second half of the season is always busier.
Have a great week and thanks for reading!
