As we had through the next few days, things will be pretty warm. Nothing new there, I suppose. Temperatures will continue to run in the 90s with a Heat Index up around 100 degrees.
Once we get through the heat, we will get back into a shot for some rain starting on Saturday, through Sunday, Monday and into Tuesday or next week. The rain will come with a chance for storms and the potential for some strong storms – though severe weather looks less likely – with brief heavy rain, gusty wind, and small hail possible. The tornado threat is very low.
Rainfall totals between the GFS and Euro suggests up to 3″ of rain. The NBM is running a bit lower with rainfall total s(that’s normal) but still shows a chance for more than 1″ of rain for the area.
If the pattern shakes out like it is being shown in the model guidance, CurerntIy. I’m leaning toward higher rainfall totals with some localized spots potentially seeing up to 6″ of rain by the time it is all said and done. And since the 6″ of rain would fall over four or five days, flooding isn’t much of a concern.
Once we break out of this pattern by the end of next week, things start to settle into more of a Summer pattern for a few days with the return of the seabreeze and afternoon storms.
