TUESDAY Update: Atmosphere Ripe For More Storms – “Hit or Miss” Downpours

Good Morning!  Here’s my brief video forecast discussion.     

 
CLIMATE DATA:    Yesterday’s high in Montgomery was 95, with a Heat Index as high as 102. Morning low 74.  Normal High/Low 94 and 75.  Rainfall: 0.23”.  (East Montgomery Rainfall:  1.25”) Sunrise at 6:01 AM.

TODAY:   Hot & Humid, again. Today’s High near 93. Heat index 100+. Scattered to numerous, but random showers & thunderstorms mainly in the afternoon & evening.  Locally heavy downpours    Low tonight 74.   

Here’s a couple Future Radar examples.  Models don’t seem to have a good handle on the situation.  They appear a little underdone to me. 

.

NEXT FEW DAYS:   Better than normal Rain continue through Thursday. Scattered to numerous random afternoon & evening storms.  Rain chances return to a more routine summertime normal Friday & Saturday.  Highs in the low to mid 90’s.  Triple digit heat indices.  Lows at night in the low to mid 70’s.  Rain coverage is a little better, again on Sunday.

TROPICAL OUTLOOK :    The tropics are STILL very quiet for now.

Lot’s of Tropical Waves in the Caribbean and Tropical Atlantic, but nothing concerning at the moment. 

Thanks for reading this Blog this morning! This morning we are LIVE on the radio from 6 to 9 on NewsTalk 93.1.  Watch us on TV on CBS 8 and ABC 32.  I’ll have another update for you in the morning.  Have a nice day.
