SAVANNAH, Ga. () — Skies clear out overnight and a much drier weather pattern sets in for the new week. 

Cloud cover that dominated the morning broke and a good deal of sunshine broke out. Some showers developed, but a majority of the area received welcomed dry time for Sunday.

Watch out for the possibility of patchy fog around sunrise. Any fog quickly dissipates by 8 AM or so and we will be left with sunshine for Monday. Temperatures will return to average with highs in the upper-80s to lower-90s, and a heat index around 100°.

West winds will pin the sea breeze near the coastline for much of the day. With that, expect a 30% chance of showers and storms during the afternoon and evening due to a frontal boundary moving through our area.

A cold front moving into the region will bring a big change to the weather this week. Cooler temperatures and a huge drop in humidity are expected for much of the workweek. 

Mornings will feature temperatures in the 60s while afternoon highs will be 5° below average, in the mid-80s.

Hurricane Hunters investigated 99-L today and found a disorganized system. The National Hurricane Center has dropped the chance of development to 30%. 

Again, it will need to be watched over the long run due to the way the Northwest Caribbean Sea can flare systems back up. 

Fernand remains a tropical storm as of late Sunday. It will continue to move north-northeastward over the North Atlantic, affecting no land areas.

There are no tropical threats to the Coastal Empire & Lowcountry at this time.
