Typical Early August Weather

Monday morning

Today's video includes a time-lapse movie filled with cumulus clouds then presents a forecast for this week and hints about next weekend. The weekend was cooler than average in the major cities and coastal resorts from Maryland to Maine. The next few days will be warmer, but before any kind of heat wave can get established, another cold front will cross the Great Lakes and Northeast.

Bertha, just east of the Bahamas, had winds approaching hurricane force as the storm moved northward early this morning. As shown on this map, all computer model tracks show the storm staying well east of the U.S mainland.
