Nice little breeze off the water. Keeps temperatures there warm in the 80s, how much, still humidity levels remain on the high side. Different story foreign land spots. See showers right over central pennsylvania right now, head eastward, and theyre going time pact the Delaware Valley. Could be few stronger maybe even perhaps few severe thunderstorms this afternoon into the evening hours. But, this strong cold front that does bring some big changes up to our forecast. And we want to show you this in just a second. Right now head of the front, warm, muggy, 60s, mid sevens, flip side of the front, look at that, 56 in minneapolis, 58 in chicago, we will see some 50s, especially in the suburbs, especially on tuesday morning. So talking about opening up the windows, very low humidity, it will feel real good coming up this week for late august. Now, though, not the story. 71 degrees dew point temperature, that means very high humidity, feels oppressive, stays like that through the day today. But then dew points are really starting to drop over the next couple every days. Part of the reason is the winds direction out of the south. Around 10 Miles Per Hour into the afternoon. That will just pumps in the warmth, humidity. Once the front is through we start to get this flow out of the northwest coming in from southern canada, cooler and drier, temperatures take a dive southward, so actually going to go below average for part of the work week. Shore forecast today, jersey shore, 84 degrees, same deal the delaware beaches. Watch out for the lay day shower or thunderstorm most likely during the evening, highs low 80s, even cooler, on tuesday, upper 70s, thats it, along the coastline in the sunshine. Tropical storm fiona, still exists here, over the central waters of the atlantic, 45 Miles Per Hour, still the track takes it to the northwest, and eventually over the next couple of days, weak tens back to tropical depression. So really no threat from that storm. Back home today, we do have a severe storm threat. Marginal risk for severe storms later today, especially in the areas in the green. Farther east near the coast, little more stable, and it will be harder to get some thunderstorm. Into the afternoon we go. We start to see few scattered showers and storms breaking out, as early as 2 00 this afternoon, threat will continue through early evening head toward 11 00 or so. Most of the showers diminish, move off shore. We wake up tomorrow morning in the sunshine, and expect a lot of sun, for the upcoming work week. How much rain are we talking about . We could use some more. If you get the heavier showers, could be half inch of rain or soap, and it is possible, some areas dont see any rain at all, because these will be scattered. Temperature wise today, mid upper 80s, still very warm, and then tonight, we start to feel temperatures drop little bit waking up maybe mid 60s in some of the coolest suburbs tomorrow morning. But noticeably cooler for high monday afternoon, struggle to get to the mid 80s, so actually couple every degrees below average potentially. Today above average, 88, humid, afternoon showers and storms, tonight still some storms early at 72, and the extended forecast, tomorrow, big difference, even in the morning hours. Eightyfour for the high. Eightytwo on tuesday, tuesday morning, again, 50s, in a lot of the suburbs, we keep it dry and comfortable through thursday, then humidity start to increase for friday.
