Another beautiful December day. High temps once again reached the low 60s, several degrees above norm.
Seems like most weekends we end up with some rain chances. Thankfully this weekend we don’t have to deal with any storms, just rain.
Another December day that doesn’t feel like December.
Plenty of sun propelled high temperatures into the low 60s. Temps will fall down into the low 30s tonight.
Friday will be a copy and paste of what we had with today.
For a mid-December day, the weather is treating us well. Plenty of sun got high temps up into the upper 50s, we’ll fall back down to around freezing tonight.
Thursday and Friday will be copy and paste, mild afternoons, cold nights.
Started out with temps below freezing this morning, but plenty of sunshine has propelled our temperatures into the mid to upper 50s.
This will be a reoccurring theme throughout the work week.
Rain chances will increase Saturday/Sunday thanks to a low-pressure system to our south. Usually around this time of year, if we mention a low-pressure system to our south, we’d normally have to talk about snow. However, with no cold air in place, we’ll be stuck with just rain chances.
With high pressure dominating the region, we’ll be in a calm, unchanging weather pattern for a while. I like calm.
Besides today, with high temps in the mid 40s, the rest of the week we’ll see highs in the mid to upper 50s. AM temps will be around freezing.
A cool day is made colder by a jerk wind from the NW, making it feel several degrees colder than it actually is.
Thankfully, calm weather is in the forecast for this week. No rain in the forecast until maybe Saturday.
A Tornado Watch has been issued for both of our counties until 7pm tonight.
Our probabilities from the Storm Prediction Center are:
Our main threat today continues to be damaging straight-line winds, but severe hail and a tornado or two cannot be ruled out.
It’s been… /checks calendar/ …a while since we’ve talked about any severe weather chances.
Although it is December, this is not unusual for us. We are in the midst of our second severe weather season, and although it has been quiet/non-existent so far, it has finally awoken.
I’ll start off with good news, and that is that our drought situation has improved. It is not gone, but it has improved.
Davidson has been left with a Moderate Drought, while WillCo. is under a Severe Drought. Better than the Extreme Drought we were dealing with.
A few locations might reach 32° tonight, but other than that, we’ll take a pause on sub-freezing temps for a little while. Strong southerly flow will help our high temps reach the 60’s Thursday – Sunday.
