VIDEO FORECAST

WEATHER DISCUSSION: Strong high-pressure system across southeast Canada will dive down into the northeast and Mid-Atlantic this weekend bringing breezy NE winds and some coastal concerns including increasing surf on the east facing beaches with moderate to high risk of rip currents. Also… minor beach erosion and higher than normal tides can be expected at high tide along the New Hanover and Pender County beaches. High pressure  dominates with mostly sunny skies and near seasonable highs Monday and Tuesday in the lower to middle 70s. By Wednesday and Thursday another cell of high pressure will slip into New England leading to a mixture of sunshine and clouds. A coastal trough could form, and perhaps enough moisture returns to bring a slight chance of a shower by Sunday with highs in the middle to upper 70s. It appears little if any rain will fall for at least the next 7 days and possibly all the way through the end of the month.  

WWAY FORECAST:            . 

Tonight: Mostly clear and cool… with breezy conditions easing overnight. Low in the lower 50s. Northeast winds gradually diminishing.

Monday: Mostly sunny and pleasant… with lighter winds. High in the middle 70s. Dry conditions continuing throughout the day.
