...Patchy, Locally Dense Fog Likely Early This Morning...

A humid air mass and light winds will make fog development likely
this morning, especially in low-lying areas and places which
received rainfall over the past 24 hours. Visibility's may drop
to 1/4 mile in some places. Motorists should exercise caution and
be prepared for sudden changes in visibility over short distances.
Remember to slow down, use your low-beam headlights, and allow
extra time to reach your destination.

The fog will gradually mix out by 8 AM. Stay tuned to NOAA all
hazards weather radio and your local media for the latest updates.

    Going forward, we can anticipate a continued pattern of daily shower and thunderstorm chances throughout much of the upcoming week. Elevated humidity levels will persist, and temperatures will gradually warm, reaching into the upper 80s by mid-week.

    There will be a couple of distinct periods where showers and storms are expected to be more concentrated. The first will occur through this evening; however, the coverage of showers/storms should diminish greatly after sunset. The next best chance for widespread showers and storms will be from Sunday night into Monday PM, as another shortwave system moves through the region.

    Heavy rainfall is the main concern with these storms, with some areas potentially receiving 1.5-2 inches of rain. This heavy rain could lead to localized flooding, especially in areas with slow-moving storms.

    Otherwise, temps stay pretty uniform with highs in the 80s and lows near 70 with high humidity.

    As we head towards next weekend, a ridge may bring even warmer and more humid conditions. Temperatures could reach the low 90s by next weekend, with heat index values pushing into the mid-90s.
