.SHORT TERM...
(This afternoon through Friday)
Issued at 231 PM EDT Thu Sep 11 2025
Key Messages:
- Dry conditions persist with warm daytime temperatures after
      cool morning lows.
No significant changes will occur through the short term forecast
period as dry weather prevails. Morning lows on Friday will largely
range through the 60s, a bit warmer than the last couple of
mornings. The expansive midlevel ridge extending from Texas into the
Plains will gradually expand eastward Friday while a trough axis
extends from the Mid-Atlantic into the Carolinas and southwestward.
Meanwhile, at the surface, high pressure will extend from Quebec
southward across the eastern US, keeping us high and dry. Highs on
Friday will not change much over today`s conditions, largely ranging
from the mid to upper 80s.

.LONG TERM...
(Saturday morning through next Wednesday)
Issued at 231 PM EDT Thu Sep 11 2025
Key Messages:
- Dry pattern continues through the middle of next week.
- High temps expected in the 80s and lower 90s.
A fairly stagnant weather pattern continues through next week
keeping things dry through at least day 7. Upper level troughing
slowly drifts eastward with surface high pressure remaining fairly
stationary along the eastern seaboard. Minimal moisture return
expected over the next 7 days so at most we may see a day or two
with increased cloud cover. With dewpoints expected in the 50s to
lower 60s, and afternoon highs in the 80s to near 90, Min
relative humidity values will stay in the 30% to 35% range through
the period.
