Another dry, yet warm today. Enjoy it because starting tomorrow we get active weather wise.
Air Quality Alert will be in effect all day. “The general public is not likely to be affected. Active children and adults, and people with a respiratory disease such as Asthma, should limit prolonged outdoor exertion.”
Rain will be a welcome sight to many this weekend…unless you have outdoor plans. Latest U.S. Drought Monitor has us as “abnormally dry.” Sounds right.
Hi-Res Models, which are just coming into view, generally agree that scattered showers and storms will arrive Sunday morning. That’s about all we can get from those models right now….because that’s as far out as they go. The lower-res models pick up from there and keep rain off/on all day Sunday into Sunday night.
Been seeing a lot of questions about the smoke/haze. Most of it has exited our area and most of what you saw was fog this morning, with a little haze mixed in. Here’s the current near-surface smoke density.
Still seeing some smoke from the wildfires in Canada. A graphic from NWS Atlanta visualizes it well.
The cold front will be responsible for the clouds and rain we see today. It’ll also aid in pushing the smoke and haze out.
We’ll be dry today but incoming smoke from wildfires in Canada will be impacting us, especially tonight thru Wednesday morning.
Although it’ll make for a cool looking sunset tonight and sunrise tomorrow, the smoke will drop the air quality. People with respiratory issues may need to limit time outdoors.
Wattery chances will be mostly confined to those south of I-40.
HRRR model (above) thinks your best chance of seeing anything will be in the afternoon/evening, with chances dropping when the sun goes down, on my side of town. No severe weather concerns. Lightning, gusty winds, small hail, heavy rain are all possible, y’all know the routine by now.
The Storm Prediction Center has outlooked both of our counties with a 5% chance of damaging winds within 25 miles.
The graphic above sums it up well but let us dive into more details.
HRRR model (above) agrees with the timeframe of 1pm – sunset, maybe lingering a little longer after.
I got a wide range of responses from my 90’s themed blog yesterday. I figured the bossman would call me into his office.
Little did he know, I was waiting for this, and had a response.
Another disclaimer, I’ve never seen a second of 90210. I know, shame on me. However, now you may get more 90210 gifs than you bargained for.
Disclaimer: I wasn’t alive in the 90’s. That doesn’t mean I’m uncultured. I know my fair (but limited) share of 90’s fads.
Maybe not so much the temperatures, but the (mostly) dry weather will make you want to do the Carlton.
Somehow, we are already into the sixth month of the year. And the weather is pretty typical for it.
We’re set up for a nice, but hot weekend. Temps will be the hottest they’ve been all year as they reach the lower 90s.
