Monday July 9 2018
Our great weather weekend has been thanks to the strongest high pressure in 30 years. This morning was another morning with lows in the 50s, but that is about the change. Our weather system has kept Tropical Storm Chris from moving onshore, and now will do two things: 1) Push Chris into the Atlantic; 2) Allow the heat to return.
Below is an amazing look at a double circulation off of the coast, but first we have some local weather to pay tribute to. Bu the way, only a small chance of rain with a cold front passing Tuesday evening. Otherwise the action remains off of the coast.

Tuesday Evening: Scattered Showers
This line of rain is not solid, so only hit or miss showers expected
Tropical Storm Chris
Winds are up to 60 mph and there is plenty of warm water in the Gulf Stream to support intensification. But, our large High Pressure will keep it off shore and steer to the northeast.
Tropical Storm Chris Satellite Loop
This water vapor imagery is amazing with a double vortex… That second circulation is remaining well offshore.
Tropical Storm Chris
This is expected to reach hurricane intensity by Tuesday. Rip Currents will be the biggest impact at the Delmarva Beaches.
