KEY MESSAGE 1...ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES, AT LEAST 5 TO 10
DEGREES ABOVE AVERAGE, EXPECTED TUESDAY THROUGH LATE WEEK.
KEY MESSAGE 1 DESCRIPTION...
A LARGE HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL MOVE EAST ACROSS THE MID
ATLANTIC COAST AND OUT TO SEA ON TUESDAY. AREAS TO THE N OF THE
HIGH WILL BE INFLUENCE BY THE WSW FLOW. THIS WILL BRING MOSTLY
SUNNY SKIES AND WARM TEMPS, AT LEAST 5 TO 10 DEGREES ABOVE
NORMAL FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR. HOWEVER, THE SW FLOW WILL KEEP
COASTAL TEMPS MUCH LOWER DUE TO THE SEA BREEZE. THE HOT
WEATHER, COMBINED WITH SOME MODEST INSTABILITY AND WEAK LOW
PRESSURE WAVES MOVING THROUGH THE AREA, SHOULD ALSO HELP TO
DEVELOP SOME ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
EACH AFTERNOON BEGINNING WEDNESDAY AND CONTINUING THROUGH THE
END OF THE WEEK. NO SEVERE POTENTIAL IS EXPECTED AT THIS TIME
DUE TO THE LIMITED INSTABILITY.
