MONDAY - FRIDAY: A dome of high pressure, known for bringing hot temperatures and low rain chances, looks to settle back into the southeastern US. As a result, high temperatures will sit in the mid 90s and overnight lows in the low 70s through most of the week. The core of the high is to our north, meaning we could have a few showers and storms end up popping in SGA daily. Rain chances are low, but not zero, at around 20%, with slightly better chances closer to the FL-GA border.

Main takeaways are: no day is a washout, each day could see isolated showers and storms, and temperatures look to be above average.

TROPICS: There are two areas of interest in the Atlantic currently: Remnants of “Dolly” and Disturbance 2, both of which could impact the US in some way this week. Impacts will be very minimal, here are the details.

  • Remnants of “Dolly”: Has a 10% chance to redevelop within the next 7 days as it scrapes just to the north of the Lesser Antilles this upcoming week. Heavy rain and gusty winds will be possible for portions of the Lesser and Greater Antilles this week. Rain from this system could reach the Bahamas and south Florida by midweek, significant impacts are not expected at this time.

  • Disturbance 2: Has a 20% chance to develop within the next 7 days in the northern Gulf. A few models have this system potentially organizing into a Tropical Depression or Storm, but it seems unlikely at this point. Impacts from this system were felt today along the northern Gulf coast, and will likely continue to be felt. Showers and storms could bring heavy rainfall at least through Monday in Florida all the way to the Louisiana coast. If this system does manage to briefly develop, the next name on the list is Edouard.
