We are starting the week off with some sunshine, warm but seasonable temperatures and lower humidity! Some areas picked up between 2-8" of rain between Thursday and Saturday which helped with our drought conditions. Tuesday will be another nice outdoors day with dry weather and temperatures climbing to the low 90s. Look for low rain chances to return Wednesday through Saturday with better chances for spotty storms Sunday and Monday. Hurricane Nigel is not expected to threaten the US and should stay east of Bermuda. It's moving NW but will turn NE later this week.

Ironically, our last week of summer will be quiet with near-normal temperatures. I guess we've earned it! A stray shower is possible along the coast today as the stationary front that brought us several days worth of rain departs, but isolated showers may return later this week. Otherwise, look forward to sunny, dry days with low humidity. In the Tropics, we have a newly named storm, but no local concerns at this time.
