Besides probably sweating a lot, the 4th looks pretty good. Temps in the mid/upper 90’s, paired with dewpoints hovering around the 70° mark, will lead to heat index in the 100-105° range, which is cooler than the rest of this week will be…I might just stay inside and watch Joey Chestnut eat more hot dogs in 10 minutes than I ever have.
Some of us won the Wattery yesterday.
Will. Co got a bit more.
Some of us did not win. That’s the name of the game. Sometimes ya win, sometimes ya lose.
Whether you like it or not, you’re playing again today. IDK if you’ll win or lose (whichever way you see it).
As a refresher, wattery pun = playing the lottery for rain, who knows who will win, watery as in the water our crunchy grass desperately needs, and watt as in electricity with lightning in any of these storms. Super punny, I know.
“Wattery” is a three tiered dad pun (which I will now ruin for the sake of clarity: lottery as in who knows who will win – maybe nobody, watery as in rain we need, watts as in electricity as in lightning), deal with it.
The dewpoint jumped from 58° at 5 AM to 68° at 9 AM.
Foreseeable future afternoon highs are now stuck in the low/mid 90°s.
Storms may pop up this afternoon. High pressure will fight storm formation but a few cells may push through. Don’t know exactly whether, when, or where it’ll happen.
Air Quality Alert today — impacting sensitive groups (asthma, young/old, etc.)
Abnormally-dry predrought continues. We are 3.18″ below normal for June, but 2.66″ above normal for 2022.
It’s been nice having late June afternoons not feel like late July afternoons. That crispness in the air first thing in the morning is like a cool mountain breeze.
Well, I hope you have a good memory, because that &*#% is gone starting tomorrow.
Comfortable humidity and temps Monday and Tuesday, let’s goooo.
Humid, summertime airmass arrives Thursday morning and sets up camp. Temps right around and slightly above normal for late June with humidity increasing from Comfortable to Sticky. Humidity will be Uncomfortable Friday through the weekend.
Clouds this morning has knocked the forecasted high down to “only” 94. With the dewpoints in the upper 60’s it’ll still feel closer to 100.
Currently some rain in NW Tennessee and Kentucky. Models don’t think this rain makes it to us and dissipates before arrival.
It’s still hot. Dewpoints in the mid 60’s will make it feel a lot closer to the 100° mark today.
Maybe pop-up showers/lightningstorms, but HRRR (and most) models think this stays to our east, letting us roast.
