Heat Advisory Today, Severe and Flood Threat This Evening/Tonight

We certainly have plenty of headlines to talk about.

Before the storms, it’ll be a hot one. Our Heat Advisory continues thru 8p. High temperatures will soar into the mid 90s, paired with dewpoints in the mid 70s = heat index values in the 105 – 110° range. Please take precautions against the heat if you have to be outside for long periods of time, including staying hydrated and taking frequent breaks. Heat illness can happen to anyone. read more

Wattery Continues, Watching Tuesday’s Severe Threat

We have three more days of storms to get through before we finally get a pattern change.

Today (Sunday), will be more of the Wattery (water + lottery) variety. Scattered showers + storms possible thru the evening hours. Not expecting any severe weather today, but we’ll be watching for the possibility of localized flash flooding with any slow-moving or training storms. And of course, any storm could contain lightning, so heads up to those with outdoor plans today – when thunder roars, go indoors. read more

Wattery on Replay

Another day, more Wattery chances. This week will be a continuation of our rinse (sometimes literally) and repeat pattern we’ve been in for… a while.

A guess from the HRRR model on what the radar could look like today, which won’t be exactly right, but gives a halfway decent idea. More popup showers/storms, mainly confined to the afternoon and early evening. Although last night we saw we can’t rule some precip out a little bit later as well. read more
