Soggy Start To The Week
This week will bring a mixed bag of soggy conditions, sunny days, and seasonably warm temperatures.
The “Dog Days Of Summer” are officially over now. This is a weather phrase that refers to the hottest and most humid days that fall between July 3 and August 11 in our region. Once this period comes to an end, our area usually experiences more seasonably warm temperatures.
The work week will begin with mostly cloudy skies and plenty of humidity. The temperatures will be in the mid 80s. There will be a high chance of showers and possible thunderstorms throughout the day so make sure you are prepared for this soggy start to the week.
On Tuesday, there may be some lingering showers early on in the morning but then we will see periods of clouds and sun with temperatures once again in the mid 80s.

Wednesday should be the highlight of the week as the clouds from the previous weather disturbance leave our area and we will see mostly sunny skies. The temperatures will be in the mid 80s and the humidity levels will be low making for a comfortable mid-point to our week.
On Thursday, there will be partly sunny skies with temperatures in the mid 80s. As the evening approaches, the cloud cover will thicken and there may be the chance of a late evening thunderstorm. The chance for precipitation will increase as we move later into the night and into Friday.

There has been a parade of tropical disturbances coming off the coast of Africa and into the Atlantic Ocean. This is the time of year where the warm ocean waters can cause a large number of storms to flare up and head toward the U.S. coast. Tropical Storm Franklin is the latest named storm and this system is heading eastward and out to sea. As of now, there is no threat to our area but this will continue to be monitored as the week progresses.
