.SHORT TERM (TDY-FRI)...
Issued at 431 AM EDT Thu Apr 25 2024

Another fairly clear and cool morning across the peninsula.
Meanwhile, an upper level ridge gradually dominating over the region before sliding and building along the East Coast. As a result, dry air and rain free conditions remain in place over the next several days. Light easterly winds prevailing with an onshore shift each afternoon. In terms of temperatures, highs warm up to around 90 degrees by Friday while dewpoints stay in 60s.
