Steamy Sunday. Sct’d PM Storms…

Synopsis:

There are two main weather stories for Sunday: Very humid conditions and the threat for scattered severe storms later today. A severe thunderstorm watch is in effect for the entire area until 7pm. As a cool front approaches later today scattered showers and storms will develop after 3pm. Some of the storms may turn severe with strong winds, hail and torrential rain. The tri-state area is in an enhanced risk of severe thunderstorms.  Keep an eye to the sky for threatening weather after 3PM. A tropical airmass is over the region due to the Southwest flow around a Bermuda high. It’ll be uncomfortable.

We will be rewarded once the front passes. A couple of gems are on the way for Monday and Tuesday as high pressure builds into the region from the North and West. Temperatures will be below the average high of the mid 80s. The sun will dominate both days. What a start to the month of July!

Wednesday will be more seasonable and by the 4th of July it’ll be hot and humid. At this time JMW is keep this timeframe storm free.

Stay tuned.
