Forecaster Derrah Getter's First Warning Forecast
Humidity levels rise Monday and so do temperatures. Each day will get a little bit warmer through the end of the week.
Rain chances will remain low for the whole week as an area of high pressure dominates the region.
Highs will trend in the mid and upper 80s Monday but it will feel closer to the 90s once we factor in the humidity. A few clouds will be around to start the day but mostly sunny skies will stick around from the late morning on.
Juneteenth is looking good for any events happening across the area, it'll just be warm. The official start of summer is on Thursday! Highs will top out in the upper 80s.
Next weekend is expected to be our warmest one yet with highs holding in the low 90s. Each night gets warmer as well with overnight lows creeping up into the low 70s.
Tropical Update 7 pm 6/16/24:
A large area of disturbed weather has formed over Central America, the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico, and the adjacent waters of the northwestern Caribbean Sea. A broad area of low pressure is forecast to form from this system over the southwestern Gulf of Mexico in a day or two. Environmental conditions appear conducive for gradual development of this system, and a tropical depression could form by midweek while it moves slowly westward or west-northwestward. * Formation chance through 2 days: MEDIUM (50%) * Formation chance through 7 days: HIGH (70%)
An area of low pressure is forecast to form a few hundred miles northeast of the Bahamas in the next several days. The potential system is expected to approach the coast of the southeast by the end of the upcoming week.
*Formation chance through 2 days: LOW (near 0%)
*Formation chance through 7 days: LOW (30%)
