Unseasonably cool this coming week

With highs not even forecast to touch 80 and winds generally out of the north, it will be unseasonable cool this week for our vacationers. No rain seems to be in the picture though. The evenings will be cool and breezy. Not exactly the best of beach weather, but at least it won't be so humid.

The season kicks off

The week after Memorial Day weekend was dry and labored with a southeast wind, which cooled things down every evening. The roads were packed with early season vacationers. Restaurants were full to capacity every evening at dinnertime. The 2007 season appears to be off to a busy start.
Then just in time for the start of the Atlantic hurricane season, we are due to receive some most definitely needed rain from the season's second named storm, Barry. After it passes over the Florida peninsula later today, the system will track up the east coast and visit us on the Outer Banks Sunday into Monday. Skies are already overcast, and temperatures mild. We are expecting no real adverse weather, just some rain.
