An upper ridge will build over our region from the west through midweek. A large upper trough over the western U.S. will shift eastward the latter half of the week and over the weekend, with an associated surface low pressure area lifting north across the northern Plains into south-central Canada. The 12z Run of the GFS has the axis of this trough crossing over the Mississippi River Saturday night. The ECMWF timing is starting to become better align with the GFS, but still lags behind by about 12 hours.
Showers and thunderstorms will return for the weekend, with the highest rain chances (40-50%) likely occurring Saturday night through noon Sunday, and then taper off from west to east through Sunday night. At this time, we are anticipating around one-half to one inch of widespread rainfall with this system.

Until then, it remains a temperature and low afternoon relative humidity forecast into midweek with dry weather conditions persisting through Friday night. High temperatures will range from 85-90 degrees (around 6-11 degrees above normal) through Thursday before cooling slightly into the middle 80s on Friday and the lower to middle 80s over the weekend due to increasing cloud cover and rain chances. Low temperatures tonight will be near normal, with middle 50s inland and the upper 50s to lower 60s along the immediate coast. Lows will trend warmer throughout the week, and should be 2-7 degrees above normal Wednesday night, and a whopping 12-17 degrees above normal Saturday night (middle to upper 60s inland and around 70 degrees along the immediate coast) due to a good fetch of southerly winds.

Beach Forecast: The LOW rip current risk persist through Thursday night. Increasing low level southeasterly flow across the region will help increase the rip current risk by the weekend across our local beaches, with a Moderate risk returning by Friday and potentially a High risk of rip currents this weekend. /22
