- The beautiful weather with lower humidity begins today, but with a secondary cold front moving through later tonight, it will be much cooler and less humid tomorrow and Friday. The weekend should remain dry, but the humidity will be slowly increasing, and Sunday will be quite warm.
- There is uncertainty for Monday and Tuesday as a backdoor cold front *may* sink down and stall near the area, which would bring more clouds and showers, along with cooler temperatures than previously expected.
- Invest 96L has more impressive convection than yesterday, and the National Hurricane Center has increased the chances of tropical development within the next 5 days to 50%. Many of the ensemble members have it eventually turn northward, but it's far from certain.
