The system formerly known as Debby is long gone and now we can enjoy nice dry Canadian air for the next several days. Dew points will be slowly coming down today but they will still be on the high side into the afternoon. Look for decreasing clouds and increasing sunshine from west to east on this Saturday. High temperatures will be mostly in the lower 80s. Some warmer spots to the south could push it to 84 or 85 for a high. Dew points will be settling in the upper 50s to lower 60s by the end of the day. We have no issues with showers as the radars are going to be nice and quiet locally for awhile.

Good morning everyone. The Northeast is enjoying some fine summer weather as high pressure dominates, and that pesky stationary front is now well to your south. Things are looking very warm to hot, with low humidity until Monday. That's when the juice returns and you'll have a chance of a PM T-storm each day. Until then, enjoy this break because I feel it's going to be a busy 1st and 2nd week of August.

The remnant low that was Tropical Storm Debby continues to track northward. The low center is moving through Central Pennsylvania and will turn eastward across Upstate NY and Northern New England. This means the heaviest rain will track well to the west with flash flood issues from Central and Western Pennsylvania to Central and Northeastern NY and Northern New England. For areas on the east side of the low track showery rains and thunderstorms will occur and there is elevated severe weather risk from Southeast Virginia northward through Maryland, Eastern Pennsylvania, New Jersey, much of the Hudson Valley and the Catskills, northeastward into New England.
