August is just about ready to give way to September and our weather pattern is finally looking and acting the part. After one major fall fling, we have steamy temps and scattered storms taking center stage in the coming days. But, for how long? I will dive into that in just a bit.<\/p>\n<p>In the near-term, a disturbance works northward into the region today. This means an increase in scattered showers and storms compared to what we had Saturday. With the increase in clouds and boomers, temps will come in a few degrees cooler, too.<\/p>\n<p>The week ahead will be dominated by a daily threat for a scattered shower or storm and temps on the toasty side. This is a seasonal brand of\u00a0 warm air, but with a pretty good surge in humidity. The real deal heat looks to stay west and north of our region&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Euro-26.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15328\" src=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Euro-26.png\" alt=\"Euro 2\" width=\"587\" height=\"538\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Euro-26.png 587w, https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Euro-26-300x275.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 587px) 100vw, 587px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s interesting to watch the trend of the current pattern because it pretty much fits the script of the past two years at this same time.
