Overview
- Cooler, drier air is entrenched from the Southeast into the Mid-Atlantic with morning lows in the 30s–40s and patchy frost inland, while highs run mostly in the 60s–70s.
- Another mostly dry front moves through the East late Tuesday into Wednesday, bringing scattered light showers and a broader cooldown into the 50s–60s by late week.
- Coastal hazards continue: Central California’s west-facing beaches face 10–14 ft surf with dangerous rip currents, and South Florida reports rip-current risk and minor high-tide flooding.
- Dense marine fog and stubborn low clouds are impacting some Pacific coast commutes early, with gradual clearing later in the day.
- Forecasters put Invest-98L in the eastern Caribbean at a high (around 90%) chance of development, with tropical-storm-force winds already observed and formation possible today.
