DAYS 1-5 (AUGUST 12-16)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The large scale pattern this week will feature a westerly flow, around a broad trough, with a bit of cyclonic curvature to the air flow in the region. This will take 2 disturbances across the region when we have shower chances – one this afternoon and early evening, another late-day Thursday. Today’s threat features some cold enough air aloft that isolated thunder and small hail are small chances with a few of the showers that do develop. Additionally, late-day timing means a few rainbows can be spotted if you’re in the right place at the right time! Otherwise, it’s a fair and nice week with the absence of heat and high humidity. One additional note: Tonight \/ early Tuesday is the last of the 3 “best nights” to view the Perseid meteor shower, and the sky should clear out behind today’s disturbance by late evening to provide good viewing conditions. Best opportunity you can give yourself is to get away from city lights, after 10 p.m. until shortly before daybreak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TODAY: Sunny morning. Partly sunny afternoon with late afternoon to early evening isolated to scattered showers and a slight chance of thunderstorms. Any heavier showers or storms could produce small hail. Highs 76-83. Dew point in 50s. Wind W 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DAYS 6-10 (AUGUST 17-21)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The weekend will feature higher but not oppressive humidity and as a trough and frontal system approach from the west we’ll look for an increase in the shower chance, but right now timing favors Sunday 8\/18 over Saturday 8\/17, which should stay rain-free. Higher humidity and a few shower \/ t-storm chances may carry into early next week. At the same time we should be monitoring an offshore tropical system, possibly a hurricane, but strongest indications right now are that system would be well offshore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (AUGUST 22-26)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Heading into late month the pattern looks fairly quiet, seasonably warm, with a couple passing disturbances providing short-lived unsettled weather chances. No indications of prolonged significant hot weather.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
