Mostly Sunny, Mild

Current temperatures are slightly warmer than the last couple of days but continue to remain unseasonably cool. The two dominant features impacting our weather include the high pressure center over the mid-Atlantic and an area of low pressure in the Gulf of Mexico. These two features are combining to provide easterly winds and very dry air. It should be mostly sunny again today, but there may be a few high clouds later today that emanate from the tropical disturbance in the Gulf. We'll also be directly underneath an upper level ridge that will allow highs to top out around 81 this afternoon. As the tropical disturbance slowly moves closer to the area by tonight, we'll begin to moisten up considerably and some additional cloud cover will arrive late tonight. This should only allow for lows to drop to near 62 tomorrow morning.
