Weekly #AGwx And Severe Weather Outlook…

Updated 07.04.21 @ 6a

The upper pattern in the week ahead will feature a persistent ridge across the West with more of a transient look across the East.
Persistent heat will take up residence across the western tier with a cooler look (primarily thanks to the unseasonably cool airmass to open the period) across the Central and eastern tier.
The Ohio Valley will experience widespread dry weather for the bulk of the upcoming 7-day period. The exception to this will be with the passage of a midweek cold front.
Heaviest rain in the upcoming week will be focused along the Gulf Coast and Northeast.

Forecast Period: 07.04.21 through 07.11.21

A quiet and pleasant stretch of mid-summer weather can be expected to open the forecast period. Elsa will grab headlines early on (and rightfully so) as she makes the northward turn most likely into the eastern Gulf of Mexico through the early portion of the work week. As it stands now, it appears as if the Florida peninsula is at greatest risk of heavy rain and strong winds thanks to Elsa. Back here on the home front, dry conditions will prevail at least until late Tuesday. A cold front will move through the region Wednesday with better chances of scattered showers and thunderstorms (0.50″ to 0.75″ type rainfall totals expected for most). We’ll get back to dry conditions Thursday along with less humid air once again. (A stronger storm system appears slated to impact the area just beyond the forecast period).
