Next round of storms

It looks like another line of storms headed our way today. A fairly strong low pressure system for this time of year will push a number of storms ahead of it. There is a slight risk of severe weather this afternoon but it looks like the biggest threat is heavy rain. In fact, the QFP numbers for the area quite impressive bringing in .65 to around an inch.

Now for the mid range forecast. There's been some inconsistency in some of the models so far this week. Yesterday the European wanted to bring in very hot 850 temps in the +24 degree range. This morning things are much more moderate and quite frankly I like this solution better.

Friday will begin on the mild side with a strong weather system to the west, warm air along with thunderstorms are on the way Friday night.

Could be a stormy start to Saturday as most of the energy with this system is shifted north but I still see storm chances here.

Cooler and drier air makes things very comfortable by Sunday as 85o temperatures fall to around +14



850 temperatures continue to fall by Monday morning the are +8 Celsius
