Weekly #AGwx And Severe Weather Outlook…

Updated 08.01.21 @ 2:23p

The predominant upper air pattern this week will feature “troughiness” centered in the Ohio Valley with ridging across the PAC NW.
Below normal temperatures will be found from the southern Plains east and northeast (greatest departures from normal across the MO and western OH Valley region) as we progress through the first week of August.
Wetter than normal times can be expected across the Gulf Coast and up the eastern seaboard, along with the inner-mountain region.
We only expect central IN area rain gauges to accumulate between 0.10″ and 0.20″ on average over the upcoming period.

Forecast Period: 08.01.21 through 08.08.21

We’ll moderate (and turn more active) as we head into Week 2…
