DAYS 1-5 (JULY 25-29)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It’s easy to get up and look out the window this morning to showers moving through and thinking to yourself we haven’t changed weather patterns at all. But, we have. We’re in a pattern now, while still “active” in terms of regular systems passing by, they are doing just that, passing by, and not sitting on us for several days at a time with excessive rainfall amounts. Right now, we’re in the midst of the passage of a disturbance (low pressure passing to the north) which will drag its warm front across the region today and then its cold front during tonight. This does mean an unsettled weather day, but most of the rainfall we see is with the warm front this morning. Once we reach midday and afternoon, we see less rainfall around, and largely rain-free time with just the chance of a few showers and thunderstorms developing in a somewhat unstable and humid air mass. A final round of showers and storms may visit some areas with the cold front tonight, and this sets us up for a great summer day Monday as high pressure over the Upper Ohio Valley stretches toward New England. But it appears in this “things keep moving along” pattern we’re due for a frontal passage about every other day, and we’ll watch for something coming along later Tuesday and again, based on current timing, during the day Thursday, with shower and thunderstorm possibilities, with high pressure between the 2 systems providing a nice day for Wednesday. Again, none of these look like all-day rain events, though Thursday’s may be a bit more “spread out” as opposed to Tuesday’s more concise and shorter-duration impact event. As always, fine tuning will be done as we get close to each of these…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
