Monday features lots of sun with maybe a cloud or two on a gentle breeze.  Dry conditions are creating a high risk of wildfires in the interior.  A high risk of dangerous rip currents remains at the Atlantic beaches.  Highs on Monday will be in the mid-80s in the east coast metro area and the upper 80s along the Gulf coast.
