Tomorrow is looking to become a great day for any of those outdoor plans you may have. We will have a high in the lower eighties for tommorrow. We should see a mostly sunny sky with that giving way to a mix of sunshine and clouds in the late afternoon and evening hours. Through the overnight, it is going to be great for the fireworks that will be going off around the area. It will be nice and pleasant and it will be somewhat windy. Low humidites and dewpoints will make it feel unseasonably nice tommorrow.
However, there is a very slight chance of a shower tommorrow in the morning and then in the afternoon. This should, though, be in the morning and early afternoon. The chance should not stay around through the overnight, mainly after 6 p.m.
Also, remember that rip currents are a threat. And, in combination with an onshore flow, there is an elevated risk of these currents. If you are caught in a rip current, swim parallel to shore and once you are out of the rip current swim back to shore. Also remember NOT to panic when you are caught in one.
Keep in mind that there is a High Surf Advisory for today, July 3, 2007. This expires tonight at 12 Midnight EDT. A High Surf Advisory means that conditions are favorable for high waves at 5 feet and can get as high as 7 feet. It also means there is a risk for beach erosion and rip currents.

Tropical Outlook
It looks like the area of disturbed weather between South America and Africa has some convection associated with it. It is visible on the infrared satellite image this morning.
The area that I am refering to is the small circle of white in the bottom center of the image. This does have the potential to develop, but, given the dry air around the disturbed area will not let this system develop very quickly. The global forecast models do not suggest that this system will develop into anything of concern. However, it does have the potential to develop very slowly over the next few days. Even then, it won't, most likely, be a threat to the United States.
Elsewhere in the tropics, there are no immediate areas of concern. It is quite calm around the Atlantic.
