SAVANNAH, Ga. () — Very slow changes are arriving to the weather pattern this week, but expect the comfortable air to continue Monday.

Sunday brought another pleasant day with the humidity dropping even lower thanks to consistent northeast winds. High pressure in place to our north coupled with an area of low pressure off the North Carolina coast are reinforcing the pattern we’ve been locked in.

The area of low pressure will bring unsettled weather to portions of North Carolina, but a frontal boundary and multiple disturbances will remain well away from our area.

As high pressure slowly weakens through the first part of this week, expect more humidity and warmer temperatures to gradually come into play. Morning low temperatures moderate into the mid to upper 60s, and afternoons will feature upper-80s by the end of the workweek.

Rain chances will be a nonfactor for Monday through Wednesday. As more moisture moves into the area and an area of low pressure focuses moisture into the Southeast, there will be opportunities for showers for the end of the week into next weekend.

The tropics continue to keep the same theme of quiet conditions close to home and we continue to monitor a tropical wave located southwest of the Cabo Verde Islands.

This disturbance has a 70% chance of developing over the next week. Early this week, dry and stable air will limit any development or organization. Guidance shows an environment more conducive for a tropical cyclone by the end of the week.

Steering patterns support any eventual development of this system moving west-northwestward, north of the Caribbean, and eventually turning north. This would keep it away from the US.

There continues to be no tropical threats to the Coastal Empire and Lowcountry at this time.
