Forecast Discussion
The stretch of favorable launch conditions will last through the end of the week as ridging aloft and associated high pressure at the surface remain in control of our weather pattern. A very weak boundary will approach the area tomorrow, but the strong high pressure will help stave it off and prevent any unsettled weather. While there will likely be a few showers off the coast tomorrow afternoon, they are expected to be low-topped and remain offshore. Winds will be fairly light from the north, and dry air aloft will cap off vertical cloud development. The only concern for both the primary and backup days is the small chance of a flight through Cumulus Cloud Rule violation.
