    Memorial Weekend Weather Outlook- Fri PM
    The upcoming weekend's weather will be influenced by the difficult to predict position of a weak (frontal) boundary and wind shift between two areas of high pressure- a large Bermuda high to our south and another high pressure system that will essentially stay to our north. Around the northern high will be an easterly flow near us and around the Bermuda high will be an opposite southwesterly flow. Often, this interaction results in formation of distinct areas of low pressure, but the GFS shows no such distinct development.

    Instead, the GFS shows diffuse areas of light showers within this boundary area, without specific timing or exact triggers. As mentioned in my last update, this can produce weather ranging from sun, clouds, drizzle, showers. The latest models suggest that Saturday will have the most sun. Showers, if any, should occur late.

    Sat 5/23: Partly to mostly sunny with a chance of very light scattered showers, most likely later in the afternoon. High near 83.

    Sun 5/24: Partly sunny in the morning, increasingly cloudy in the afternoon with showers, mostly likely later in the afternoon. High near 84.

    Mon 5/25: Mostly cloudy with a higher chance of showers. Some clearing possible late. High 73.

    Solar Weather: The slight recent increase in solar activity has died down and the single sunspot has disappeared. Solar activity remains low enough to continue to forecast cooler than normal weather for the balance of the spring and some much of the summer.
