Forecast Discussion

Space Launch Delta 45

Continental surface high pressure will push off the Atlantic coast tonight into tomorrow with light onshore flow trending southeast on Monday. This will ensure a continuation of dry weather accompanied by light winds. Another surface ridge will build down from the north on Tuesday, with persistent onshore flow yielding a few more low-level clouds.
