Good morning! The very wet and active and occasionally rather stormy pattern will continue for a few more days. The storms will be random. Some towns will get a lot more rain than others. There will be numerous showers and storms, just about anytime day or night, but especially in the afternoon and evening hours. Tropical downpours will be numerous in spots, with locally heavy rainfall amounts. By the end of the week the persistent wet pattern will start to thin out a bit, but extreme heat will start to build with Dangerous Heat Indices.Here’s my brief forecast discussion.
TODAY: Sun/cloud mix. Scattered to numerous showers and storms most likely in the afternoon and evening hours. Hot and humid. High near 92. Low tonight 72.
FUTURE RADAR: Once again today, showers and storms will be most likely in the late afternoon and into the evening.
NEXT FEW DAYS: At first glance, this is a depressing graphic. The higher than normal daily rain chances continue. But, just remember this. It won’t rain all the time and some towns will get more rain than others. Some towns not as much. Notice: we start to heat up by late week and into the weekend as upper level High pressure builds. Storms will tend to thin out, but Triple Digit Heat in the danger range will rear its ugly head by then. Here’s my brief forecast discussion.
A huge Upper high will bring fewer storms to the forecast by Saturday.
Rainfall amounts will vary quite a bit from town to town, but the very wet pattern will cover the entire Southeast US for several days.
10 Day temperature trend. Stand by. Big summer heat is not too many days away.
TROPICAL UPDATE: NHC says the Atlantic Basin is quiet for the next 7 days, and very likely for much of the rest of June.
