DAYS 1-5 (AUGUST 4-8)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Warm to hot, humid weather has 2 days left before it gets sent packing, and while we won’t be welcoming any crisp and dry Canadian air just yet, we’ll be seeing a notable change in the temperature regime across the region after Monday at least for a few days. High humidity continues today along with a shower and thunderstorm opportunity as a slow moving cold front approaches and the wind flow comes from the south and southwest. While the front won’t pass through the region until later Monday, we’ll see a reduction in humidity during the day with a more westerly wind and down sloping off the hills and mountains to our west. However, the passage of the front can trigger an additional shower or thunderstorm, especially during the afternoon and favoring areas near and north of I-90. We then turn considerably cooler for Tuesday and midweek as the front that goes by sits just south of the region. Additional disturbances leave us vulnerable to unsettled weather, at least lots of clouds, during Tuesday and Wednesday. I’m cautiously optimistic but with low confidence anticipate fair weather Thursday as high pressure to the north is under-forecast by guidance and has greater influence on our region. During the middle of the week we’ll also have to keep an eye on Debby (currently a tropical storm, forecast to become a category 1 hurricane before a Florida Panhandle landfall then milling around the US Southeast with an uncertain future). There are many “model scenarios” ranging from the remnants of the system curving out to sea to our south, to the system staying far to the south, never really getting that far north, just dissipating in the Southeast. There are far too much potential scenarios to confidently call for one at this time, but the one I lean toward points to the system not being an impact here through Thursday. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

DAYS 6-10 (AUGUST 9-13)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Low confidence predicted scenario keeps our weather fair for Friday and holds influence from Debby (showers \/ thunderstorms) off until the August 10-11 weekend, and at that maybe only a portion of the weekend. Higher humidity and additional shower \/ thunderstorm chances may exist later in the period, but low confidence here pending the weather preceding it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (AUGUST 14-18)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
No major sustained heat indicated, fairly seasonable and a few shower and thunderstorm opportunities anticipated at mid month.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
