Warm, Dry Weekend Spreads Across U.S., With Mid-Atlantic Showers Saturday and Tropics Under Watch

Forecasters highlight uncertain tropical tracks that could redirect early‑week rain toward the Southeast and Mid‑Atlantic.

Overview

  • Patchy to dense fog reduced visibility in spots early Friday, with advisories posted in parts of the Ohio Valley and nearby regions.
  • A broad high‑pressure ridge keeps most areas sunny and warmer than average through the weekend, with highs largely in the 70s and 80s and some Gulf Coast readings near 90.
  • Clouds and rain return to the Mid‑Atlantic on Saturday with locally heavier pockets and a few thunderstorms, followed by a cooler, mainly drier Sunday with lingering clouds.
  • Hurricane Humberto is active in the Atlantic as Invest 94L near the Bahamas carries a high chance of strengthening into Imelda, and guidance remains split on potential Southeast and Mid‑Atlantic rain next week.
  • The Pacific Northwest turns wetter and cooler as a frontal system arrives Sunday night into Monday with widespread rain, while parts of the Southwest, including Las Vegas, see scattered thunderstorms this weekend.
