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.

Lowering Humidity leads to reasonable mid summer weather across the Northeast & Mid Atlantic

Humidity levels have been creeping higher since Saturday and we are going to be back in the soup for today as well as the week ahead. We will also be dealing with a series of waves moving around the Bermuda high. It is building into the Southeastern US. A southwest flow aloft is bringing up ripples in the flow. It will not be raining all the time but there will be some downpours and a few heavier thunderstorms to deal with during the week ahead.

New Jersey State

If it's the final weekend of the Summer for you, Mother Nature doesn't seem to want to cooperate. From rip current risks at the beaches from Ernesto, to rain chances, hazardous weather is possible for many. An area of low pressure that is responsible for storm chances today will move across the Mid-Atlantic and into New England on Sunday.

Storms Return to the East Coast This Weekend

A slow-moving frontal boundary will drop south across the region today and tomorrow, triggering showers and storms today and an area of rain on Tuesday. This boundary extends west to east roughly across Lake Ontario this morning. An area of rain and storms over Canada has moved out over the northern waters of Lake Ontario. This area of precipitation is expected to stay out over the lake until it passes east of the Finger Lakes.

Thunderstorms expected this afternoon and evening

Thunderstorms have been a frequent flyer in parts of the Southwest and just about non-existent in other portions of the region. However, that will soon change. Summertime conditions have allowed parts of the southwestern United States to experience locally drenching and gusty thunderstorm activity, but storms have been scarce from western Arizona and Nevada to California thus far. However, AccuWeather meteorologists believe that may change as the calendar turns to August.

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.

Weekend Rain And Thunderstorm Forecast Suggested Timeline. The weekend will bring our transition from late summer heat to a cool down next week. In between, we will have a few days with showers and thunderstorms that may have your weekend plans in question. There is a strong hurricane well off the East Coast, and that is NOT the reason for our rain. That will only bring high waves to the coast.

Weekend Rain And Thunderstorm Forecast Suggested Timeline

An unusually strong storm for the summer will spin ashore in the Northwest with areas of rain that can slow travel and thunderstorms that can cause damage. Gusty winds will raise the fire risk.

Hollywood child stardom has taken its toll on many actors through the decades. Lani O'Grady, for one, found fame in the 1970s on the TV family series, Eight is Enough. O'Grady followed in the footsteps of her brother, actor Don Grady, an original Mouseketeer and member of another popular TV family show: My Three Sons. Their mother, Mary B. Grady, was a talent agent who represented several child actors. But Lani, who would also eventually become an agent, died in 2001 just one week before what would have been her 47th birthday.
