Beautiful, then storms return
Can't beat this. Sunny skies, highs about normal in the mid-80s, with low humidity. The only fly in the ointment might be some smoke. Wildfires in North Carolina, triggered by lightning, have been sending clouds of smoke out over the Atlantic. (See satellite image below) The fires aren't out yet, so if winds shift around to the south in the next day or so, as forecast, some of that smoke could blow our way.
Otherwise, it's late-spring weather that can't be beat.
Until Saturday. That's when the next cold (or at least cooler) front slides by, increasing cloudiness in advance on Friday, and leading to increased chances for scattered showers and thunderstorms on Saturday. Some could be severe, though probably not on the scale of Tuesday's storms.
High pressure moves in behind the front, dropping temperatures a bit and clearing the skies. Monday brings yet another front, another chance for showers, and a stretch of "unsettled" weather. Look for periods of showers and thunderstorms Monday and Tuesday. Daytime high temperatures could even fall below long-term averages, with highs in the 70s by Wednesday. Cool.
