DISCUSSION
Issued at 326 PM EDT Wed Apr 24 2024

Tonight-Thursday...A surface ridge axis in place becomes stretched across the western Atlantic as a surface boundary slides southward.
Moisture gradually increases Thursday with modeled PWATs near 1" in the afternoon. An east coast sea breeze is forecast to develop, with a few fair weather cumulus clouds developing ahead of and along the boundary. No precip is expected. Morning low temperatures will range in the upper 50s to low 60s, falling a few degrees cooler across rural locations. High temperatures remain near seasonal values in the low to mid 80s. A few spots across the far interior could climb into the upper 80s.

Friday-Sunday... Upper level ridging across the eastern US will remain in place through the weekend. Surface high pressure across the eastern CONUS on Friday will shift eastward through the weekend, moving just offshore on Saturday night, and sliding southward through the day on Sunday as a vertically stacked low pressure system moves northward towards Nova Scotia. Locally, easterly flow will dominate with breezy conditions developing into the weekend, gusting 20 to 25 mph, perhaps up to 30 mph at the immediate coast.

Dry conditions will continue over land areas through the period, with isolated showers possible in the far offshore waters of the Atlantic into this weekend. Mostly sunny skies are forecast on Friday, with partly cloudy skies developing in the weekend as moisture increases across the area. Temperatures will be in the low 80s along the coast, and mid to upper 80s across the interior on Friday, with temperatures in the low 80s across the coast and low to mid 80s across the interior Saturday and Sunday. Overnight lows will be in the mid to upper 60s Friday and Saturday nights, and low to mid 60s on Sunday night.

Monday-Tuesday... Upper level ridge across the eastern CONUS on Monday will slowly shift eastward and just offshore through early week. Surface high pressure off the Carolina coast will remain in place while slightly shifting southward. Locally, onshore flow will persist, with speeds increasing to around 12 mph each afternoon. Dry conditions will remain in place, with no mentionable rain chances through the period. Skies will be partly to mostly sunny with temperatures on a slight warming trend. Afternoon highs will be in the low 80s across the coast, and low to mid 80s across the interior on Monday, and low 80s east of I-95 and mid to upper 80s west of I- 95 on Tuesday. Overnight lows will be in the low to mid 60s.
