Wonderful weather!

>> Thursday, July 01, 2010



Absolutely wonderful weather conditions are settling into the region today. We will see lots of sunshine through the day, and highs will only reach into the low to mid 80s. Add to that mixture much lower levels of humidity, and the result is terrific conditions.

It will be comfortably cool tonight with a clear sky. I feel many Piedmont locations will wind up in the upper 50s to around 60 early Friday morning.

A delightful Friday will then ensue with sunshine, low to mid 80s for highs, and low humidity.

It will get a bit warmer as the weekend unfolds, and for Independence Day on Sunday, many highs will warm to around 90. However, humidity levels will remain on the low side, so it will still feel pretty good to be outside. For all of the fireworks displays Friday evening, no problems...look for a primarily clear sky with evening temps falling through the 80s and into the 70s.

Alex....

Alex made landfall as a Category 2 hurricane with 105mph sustained winds around 10:30 eastern time yesterday evening. The pressure was all of the way down to 947mb, and Alex was rapidly strengthening in the system's final hours prior to landfall. Alex is now the strongest June hurricane wince Audrey in 1957.

The system continues to weaken in Mexico, and the threat from Alex is flooding in northern and central Mexico into southern Texas.

Hey matthew next week looks hot by what the ecmwf and cmc are showing, not as hot though on the gfs but we'll see.

Yeah, it will get hotter and muggier again next week. Probably not to the extreme extent the Euro indicates though....

yea like you said the euro is a little overdone with the heat as it has been this summer but the NWS already is going for mid 90s here in greensboro next week hot stuff.
