ANOTHER GOOD ONE
It’s getting hard to count, but this will be the 9th straight weekend with what most people would consider good weather. It will get a bit hot Sunday, but barely to 90 degrees, and not too humid. Saturday’s humidity will be low.
Here are some computer forecast maps for Sunday. First is the temperature compared to normal. The red colors are the most extreme. The second is the dew point map for Sunday afternoon. The mid 60s is a little humid for late August, but when it gets to 70-that’s muggy.
(And, in case you were worried, “Erika” will have absolutely NO impact on the U.S. East Coast this weekend).
