Labor Day features more clouds than sun and plenty of showers and storms. Look for a gusty ocean breeze in the East Coast metro area. A moderate risk of dangerous rip currents remains at the Atlantic beaches on Monday, lasting through the workweek. Highs on Monday will be mostly in the upper 80s — but it will feel like the triple digits, so stay hydrated and out of the sun.
Tuesday will bring a mix of sun, clouds, and storms in the morning, followed by clouds and periods of showers in the afternoon and evening. Look for a gusty ocean breeze in the east coast metro area. Tuesday’s highs will be near 90 degrees.
Wednesday will be another day of morning sun, clouds, and storms, until lots of showers will develop during the afternoon and last into the evening. Gusty breezes continue in the East Coast metro area. Wednesday’s highs will be in the low 90s on the mainland and near 90 degrees in the Keys.
Thursday will feature mostly sunny skies with periods of showers and storms, especially in the afternoon. Look for a gusty breeze near the Atlantic coast. Thursday’s highs will be mostly in the low 90s.
Friday’s forecast calls for an early September mix of sun, showers, and storms. Highs on Friday will be in the low 90s in the East Coast metro area, near 90 degrees along the Gulf Coast, and in the Keys.
In the tropics, we continue to watch a wave in the central Atlantic that’s approaching the Lesser Antilles. This feature has a medium chance of becoming a depression when it reaches the western Caribbean later in the week. After that, computer models are not in agreement. Some indicate landfall in Central America or the Yucatan, while others suggest entry into the Gulf of Mexico. We’ll keep a close eye on it.
Elsewhere, the poorly-defined low off the Texas coast has a low chance of development as it wanders around. Whether it develops or not, it will bring heavy rain and potential flooding to portions of Texas and Louisiana. And another wave is expected to emerge off the African coast on Monday. This wave has a low chance of development this week as it moves over the eastern Atlantic.
