Good evening, gang. All eyes continue to be focused on the hyper active weather pattern ahead of us. Temps are going to soar this week and may flirt with records by Friday into Saturday. The rounds of showers and thunderstorms will become more common and the rain numbers will really add up though early next week.

The numbers from the GFS continue to look impressive…

GFS Rain

This setup could eventually lead to some high water issues early next week. That’s when the cold air finally blasts in from the west. This will sweep in a significant period of winter weather that will grow more harsh as we go through the rest of the month into February. Just because I’m not making that the focus of the posts doesn’t mean my thoughts have changed. I have to pay much more attention to the heavy rain threat than the winter threat, right now.

Enjoy your evening and take care.
