Let’s Chat Rain

Monday night through Tuesday looks wet according to lower res global models. Those models don’t give reliable ETAs. Doesn’t look severe — SPC hasn’t outlooked us. Below is a GIF with 4 models showing total rainfall for Tuesday, notice most of the rain is west of us. 0.2″ to 0.5″ is the range, but keep in mind these are low res models.

Crap apps show low probability chances of mainly-afternoon rain/lightningstorms every day next week. A series of storm systems will be pretty far west, but we might see afternoon downpours bubble up in random spots as dewpoints rise near 60°.

Summer is nearing.

Will it rain on you one afternoon on a high dewp day?
