DAYS 1-5 (JULY 8-12)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This week will definitely be an example of summer’s definition. We start it with high pressure off the East Coast, “The Bermuda High”, which hangs around out there all week really. Ever-so-slightly drier air tried to work down from the north yesterday and tries to hang on today, most noticeably north of I-90, but the higher humidity wins out in all areas by Tuesday and then lingers through Friday. In addition a trough to the west helps set up an avenue for moisture to create showers and thunderstorms, beginning later Tuesday. The locations and coverage of these will depend on several factors, with probably low coverage in the region favoring areas away from the coast later Tuesday, favoring areas west and north Wednesday, then more widespread in coverage Thursday, with a little more uncertainty Friday. Enhancing the moisture for these will be the remains of Beryl which will be traveling through the Northeast between late Wednesday and Friday too. There will be a lot of day-to-day fine-tuning to do, so check updates (and comments where I sometimes add new thoughts after the daily update).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DAYS 6-10 (JULY 13-17)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Watching for a south and east push of the boundary lessening the shower and thunderstorm chance during the July 13-14 weekend, but uncertain. Pattern transitions to a flatter offshore ridge and a little more westerly flow heading into the following week with still warm weather, but the opportunity to get drier air into the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (JULY 18-22)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
General pattern – westerly flow aloft, low amplitude high pressure western Atlantic, weak trough Great Lakes to Upper Midwest. Warm pattern here, no persistent high heat, a few shower and thunderstorm chances.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
