Warmer Days; Continuing To Watch Sunday Evening…

  • More like summer
  • Mostly dry weekend
  • Keeping a close eye on Sunday night storm threat
  • Unsettled to open the week

The story to wrap up the work week will be one much more typical of early June- warmer days are on deck with increasing humidity.  The combination of the increasingly muggy air mass coupled with a weak upper level disturbance, could ignite a shower or storm Friday.  Most of the day will be dry, however.  The upcoming weekend will feature beautiful weather conditions- dry and warm to hot.  We continue to watch a storm complex that could deliver a round of strong to severe cells (damaging straight line winds being the biggest concern) Sunday evening and night. We’ll have to tighten up potential timing as we progress closer to Sunday, but think most of the daytime hours will be dry.  Early next week will likely open a bit unsettled.

Upcoming 7-Day Rainfall Potential: 0.50″ – 0.75″

Chilly Now, But Warmer Days Coming…

  • Unseasonably chilly air begins to moderate
  • Dry weather returns
  • Eyeing the next cold front late in the weekend

The past couple of days have felt more like late spring or fall rather than the first day of meteorological summer (June, July, August).  No need to fret, however, as milder air will return beginning Tuesday afternoon…after another very chilly start.  The next couple of days will feature plenty of sunshine!  Enjoy!  Moisture will slowly begin to increase to end the week and an isolated to widely scattered storm chance will accompany the warmer, more humid air.  Best rain and storm chances look to come Sunday as a cold front moves closer.  Drier and cooler air will work back into the region Monday evening.

Upcoming 7-Day Rainfall Potential: 0.50″ – 0.75″

MUCH Cooler Today…

  • Unseasonably cool to open the new week
  • Dry pattern most of the week
  • Storm chances increase late week

Beneficial rains fell across the area Saturday and today we’re left with a cloudy, drizzly, and much cooler regime.  It certainly won’t feel like May 31st and June will also open on a much cooler than normal note.  Jackets will be required this afternoon.  Most of the upcoming week will feature dry skies along with a warming trend once to mid week.  Moisture will increase Thursday and we’ll introduce a chance of scattered thunderstorms Thursday into Friday.

Upcoming 7-Day Rainfall Potential: 0.25″ – 0.75″
