Hazy, Hot & Humid. Sct’d PM Severe Storms…

 

Synopsis:

It will be hazy, hot and humid today. A significant cool front will approach during the afternoon. Scattered showers and storms are possible. Some of the storm may turn severe. Our area is in a slight to enhanced threat of severe thunderstorms (map above). Severe thunderstorms contain wind gusts in excess of 58mph and or one inch hail. Frequent cloud to ground lightning and torrential rain is likely with any storm. Not all areas will get in on the action. Keep an eye to the sky for threatening weather after 2pm.

Behind the front cooler and much less humid air will usher in tonight. It will be in the 50s inland. Time to give the AC a well deserved break.

It will be much more comfortable on Wednesday with a flow out of Canada. Readings will be below the average high of 83ยบ and the humidity will be much lower under sunny skies. A fall feel for sure. But don’t get to used to it as warmer and more humid conditions will be back by late week as a warm front moves through. Spotty afternoon storms are possible, but much of the time will be dry under a mix of sun and clouds.

Saturday is the greatest threat for showers and storms as a cool front approaches and the remnants of tropical system Laura move through.

Stay Tuned.
