...New UPDATE...

.UPDATE...
Issued at 952 AM EDT Mon Jun 3 2024

A rather mild start to the day with temperatures currently in the
upper 70s to low 80s. Today will be the "coolest" day of the
upcoming period with afternoon highs topping out in the upper 80s to
lower 90s which is right around average for this time of year. The
high pressure will continue to dominate the weather pattern for the
next several days as our temperatures will continue to climb back
into record territory. The morning sounding showed 1.74 inch of PWs
which continues the upward trend of moisture in the region. That
moisture will bode well for rain and thunderstorm chances along the
sea breeze later this afternoon. POPs for today reach into the 50-60
percent range. Hopefully some of us can get some decent rainfall for
our parched gardens.
