Our morning storms have moved out, allowing us the sun to come back out. It’ll be a fairly nice day, with highs near 90°.
Additional showers/storms will be possible later this evening, although most of the activity will favor areas S of I-40. No severe weather is expected, but any storm could contain the usual heavy rain, lightning and gusty winds.
Couple showers possible this afternoon, NBD. We might stay dry entirely.
We have an outside shot at some damaging straight-line winds later tonight, along with some heavy rain and lightning.
The Storm Prediction Center continues to have us outlooked with a 5% chance of damaging straight-line winds within 25 miles. We are not included in any probabilities for hail/tornadoes.
We finally have no heat-related headlines to discuss today.
Our “cold” front has moved thru, and while it isn’t cold, it will be noticeablely cooler the rest of this week.
High temperatures will mostly be confined to the low 90s, with the exception of Wednesday. Dewpoints will be more tolerable in the mid to upper 60s – compared to the low to mid 70s we’ve been dealing with.
Today will still be hot, but not as hot as the past several days.
We still have a Heat Advisory to get thru, with heat index values of 105°+ possible. Please continue to take precautions against the heat, including staying hydrated and taking frequent breaks. Heat-related illnesses can sneak up on anyone quickly.
A couple more days of dangerous heat to get thru, before we return to our regular August heat.
An Extreme Heat Warning continues today thru 7p. Actual air temperatures will make a run at 100°, with heat index values peaking near 112°. Please, continue to take it easy in this heat. If you have to be outdoors for long periods of time, stay hydrated and take frequent breaks. *Never* leave a child or pet unaccompanied in a vehicle for any amount of time.
Yeah, it’s summer, but this abnormally hot for this time of year.
Our average high is 88°, which we passed at 9a this morning.
We’re on our way to an actual air temperature of near 100°, with heat index values peaking near 110-112°.
Summer continues to slap us in the face, reminding us that it’s not Fall yet.
Our weather thru Monday will be a copy + paste.
Our Heat Advisory has been upgraded to an Extreme Heat Warning that continues thru Sunday evening.
If you thought yesterday was hot, it can always get worse – and it will.
Our temperature + dewpoint combo will remain steady thru Monday.
Actual air temperatures in the upper 90s, nearing 100°, with dewpoints in the low to mid 70s. This will send heat index values near 110° each afternoon.
The main headline for this week continues to be the gross, dangerously hot temperature + dewpoint combination.
High temperatures will be in the mid to upper 90s, nearing 100°. With dewpoints in the low to mid 70s, heat index values will be in the 105-109° range. Our Heat Advisory continues thru Friday evening and will likely be extended into this weekend.
The main headline over the next week or so will be the brutal heat. We also have some conditional storm threats to deal with, but I’ll start off with the heat.
Being outdoors for any period of time over the next…week, will not be much fun.
