Good Saturday, everyone. A more normal summertime temperature pattern is pushing into the region and looks to stick around into the middle of next week. But, this doesn’t look like a pattern settling in for the long haul. As a matter of fact, we may see another deep trough dive into the east to close July and Begin August.
Let’s kick things off with what’s going on out there today. Highs across the west reach the low 90s with a heat index pushing 100. Farther east, things are much cooler with mid and upper 80s with lower humidity levels. There’s also the chance for a storm or two to go up across the west. Here are your radars to keep you company…
Temps on Sunday will be similar to what we have today, but the timing of clouds and storms could keep the digits down a bit. Those storms drop in from the northwest and a few of them could be strong and produce locally heavy rains through Monday…
The Storm Prediction Center has a low-end risk for a few severe storms on Sunday…
Our temps try to surge for a few days into the middle of next week, but this will not hold. Check out how fast a cold front puts an end to this with more showers and storms as early as Thursday…
The EURO is all in on the eastern trough and shows it very well…
We continue to watch the system off the southeast coast for possible tropical development…
Make it a sensational Saturday and take care.
So the models are back on board with the eastern trough diving down this far south.
Time will tell.
My lawn could use a splash of rain.
Hope I receive some rain Sunday.
