Weather changes...

What an oppressively hot and humid weekend.....pretty brutal stuff. However, some weather changes are taking place today.

A cold front is dropping into the region and stalling out, and that front will give the region pretty good chances for some showers and storms over the next couple of days. Highs today will be in the low to mid 90s around the region, so at least some improvement over the highs close to 100 over the weekend.

The greatest coverage of rain and storms will likely be tomorrow, and due to that, highs will likely be in the mid to upper 80s.

I will continue to mention the chance of some mainly afternoon storms Wednesday and Thursday with highs in the low 90s Wednesday and low to mid 90s Thursday.

I mentioned last week that there were some indications of at least a temporary pattern change around the end of this week, and that does indeed still look likely at this point. A cold front will likely move through later Thursday, and it appears some less humid and cooler air might arrive just in time for the upcoming weekend. Now, keep in mind, we are still in the middle of Summer, so don't expect a Fall airmass. However, it does look like an improvement over where we have been.

Tropics...

All is quiet.
