On this week's episode, Chief Meteorologist Rich Wirdzek and Meteorologist Jake Grant discuss the rapid increase in tropical activity in the Atlantic. Also, they talk about the Pacific where Tropical Storm Hilary made the rare trek into southern California where a first ever tropical storm warning was issued. In Hawaii, many variables created unprecedented conditions that fueled the catastrophic fires in Maui. Locally in Delmarva, more frequent breaks from the high humidity are signs of a larger shift in the overall pattern heading into the final days of August.
