Showers will wrap up early, then remain quiet with mostly cloudy skies heading into Friday morning. Temperatures will be slightly lower than the past few nights, falling into the upper 60s to low 70s.

We’ll get to see some sunshine Friday morning before clouds increase for the afternoon. With easterly wind, storms will hold off until the afternoon when the east coast sea breeze starts to move inland.
The activity will not be as widespread and not everyone will see rain. Any storm that does develop, though, may hold gusty wind and heavy rain.
A similar setup is in store for the weekend as temperatures remain around 90 degrees.
Beach and Surf Forecast
Poor surf conditions stick around for the end of the work week, but the rip current threat remains low.
If you’re planning some beach time, keep an eye on the sky. When thunder roars, go indoors.
Aside from watching for afternoon storms, ocean conditions look favorable for boating.
Tropical Update
Things remain very quiet in the tropical Atlantic.
No major activity is expected in the Gulf, the Caribbean or the open waters of the Atlantic over the next five days.
