DAYS 1-5 (JULY 28-AUGUST 1)
\nAs the July days slip toward their conclusion and August arrives we will go through a period of “pattern readjustment”, or basically our oscillating Atlantic ridge will finish its slip to the east and then start to come back to the west, in turn pushing the Great Lakes & Midwest trough back to the west as well after having allowed it to slip eastward. This eastward displacement of the trough is what is responsible for our current unsettled weather, i.e., the shower and thunderstorm threat as a couple fronts move slowly through the region. The final front in the series is over the area now and will take the entirety of today and this evening to finally make its way offshore, so while this is ongoing we’ll have to be on the look-out for showers and thunderstorms. No, this is not going to turn into a widespread rain event or a washed-out Saturday, but if you have outdoor plans you’ll want to keep an eye on the weather, just in case you have to “get out of the way” as a shower or storm passes through. This is not the type of day to cancel outdoor plans, but we should be aware of what can happen. After this come two quiet and summery days Sunday and Monday thanks to high pressure being in control. This also comes with somewhat lower humidity than what we have seen recently. That humidity starts to make a comeback Tuesday when a shower or storm is possible, especially late, and by Wednesday of next week we’re back in the muggy pattern with a shower and thunderstorm threat.
