DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 21-25)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The summer solstice occurred this morning at 5:13 a.m. and the first day of summer will be a nice one, with high pressure in control, keeping advancing clouds mostly at bay. This is part of the same pattern we’ve been in for a number of days now – a fairly blocked atmosphere with not a lot of progression. In fact, retrogression (westward movement) of features becomes a player in this forecast. While a northwest to north air flow sends clouds into the region, the start of a retrogression of the pattern first sends a bubble of high pressure westward and keeps the clouds from overtaking the region for long stretches of time. In fact, an area of rain that will try to move in early Wednesday will also be largely thwarted, save for a possible shower early in the day favoring western portions of the WHW forecast area. So for the most part, both today and Wednesday will be nice days if you can deal with some clouds at times. But eventually the westward movement of features will get us into unsettled weather, as the low pressure area that plagued us with cool air, cloudiness, some showers, and a gusty breeze over the weekend will make its return for an unsettled day on Thursday. This time though it looks like just a short-stay, and it should be on its way out by Friday as things start to move to the east again. This will also set us up for a nice start to the first full weekend of summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 26-30)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Down the home stretch of June we go during this period, and it looks like a largely dry pattern with only one rain threat. We start warm and moderately humid to end the weekend June 26. A cold front brings the chance of showers and thunderstorms June 27. High pressure settles in with fair weather for the middle of next week, cooler at first, then moderating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (JULY 1-5)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Signs of a dry and seasonably warm to very warm stretch of weather for early July with high pressure in control much of the time. Will probably deal with one frontal passage during this period of time with limited shower \/ t-storm threat.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
