Cool air having difficulty holding firm in the Northeast will be the theme for the remainder of the month.

“While there will be some minor fluctuations in temperature, a persistent ridge of high pressure will keep the warmth and humidity locked into the East through most of the rest of August,” AccuWeather Meteorologist Brian Thompson said.
