A long late summer dry spell with clear skies and warm temperatures is due to come to an end this week.

A errant low pressure system is likely to back into the eastern seaboard, bringing the first chance of rain to the MOV in the last two weeks.

The low pressure system is being watched carefully by meteorologists and storm prediction center officials as heavy downpours and beach erosion is possible.

This unnamed storm is not expected to grow to hurricane strength, but the impact on the Carolina's and the eastern seaboard cannot be ignored.

The big question is if the moisture will make it over the Appalachian Mountains.

Without that extra "umph", the weekend may remain dry.

Current models forecast the moisture as arriving Friday and Saturday in the MOV.
