The Muggies Return

As spring continues to give way to summer, the southern, humid air takes over the mid-Atlantic. A big, storm edged, LOW over the Mississippi valley, cut off from the jet stream, will take it's time getting to the east coast but it will continue to fling moisture rich air from the Gulf into the southlands.  A Bermuda HIGH, over, where else, Bermuda, adds to the southerly flow and the combo guarantees a week of warmth and humidity with a daily shot at thunderstorms in the region.  As the low slides slowly east the T'storm  chances increase for Wednesday and Thursday but could happen any day until Saturday.  Be ready to sweat if you plan on outside activities with little of the cooling evaporation that humans evolved the ability to perspire to gain.  But, temps will only be in the 80's and a little breeze will make it pleasant for those of us that realize to live in Va. is to deal with humidity.
So, get out and sweat a little to finish up what has been a lovely spring, all in all, not to bad, Today on Earth.  If you have the option, stay in the shade, that high sun angle gets warm in hurry but the shade, out of the cooking sun, that air is quite pleasant.
