A ridge, then a dip

The hazy, sultry days of summertime has arrived in New England, temporarily. A Bermuda high pressure is lingering off our southeast coast and is creating a ridge in the atmosphere pumping humid tropical air clockrise into our region signaling a brief 4 day heat wave here. The configuration in the ridge will abruptly change at the end of the week as a dip in the jet stream will give us a sustained period of inclement and wet conditions like we had in early June through the 4th of July holiday.
