WEATHER BLOG: Let The Sun Shine!

Canadian high pressure continues to settle into the region Tuesday, bringing us cooler weather (than last week), low humidity and abundant sunshine!

High temps will be closer to normal for this time of year, around 80 degrees.

Skies will be mostly clear to partly cloudy overnight with lows in the mid 50s for the metro. Another day of ample sunshine on tap for Wednesday with increasing clouds expected overnight.

There's a lot of buzz about a disturbance in the Gulf has a 30 percent chance of tropical cyclone formation.

For now, let's just call it tropical moisture. How could this affect us? My expectation with this system is that it will bring a good amount of rainfall to areas along the eastern seaboard.

Some models show potential for rainfall accumulation on the order of a few inches for our region Friday through Saturday as it interacts with a wave of energy traveling from the Great Plains.

The First Warning Weather Team will be keeping a close eye on both the system out to our west and the tropical moisture in the Gulf. We will be fine-tuning the forecast for you throughout the week. See you on WJZ-TV! #mdwx
