Chief Meteorologist Patrick Rockey’s First Warning Forecast
This was day six of our below-normal temperatures. And it looks like we may even make it to 10 straight days with temperatures that are below average for this time of August!
However, as we head toward the weekend humidity levels and storm chances will be rising.
But we are expecting more lovely weather for Wednesday and Thursday.
There will be plenty of sunshine with high temperatures in the lower 80s and morning lows generally in the 60s.
The humidity levels really start to creep up on Friday and that may help spark a few late afternoon or evening storms. But it is a fairly low rain chance.
We really start to see those storm chances ramp up for the weekend as several areas of low pressure roll up the coast.
On Saturday we are expecting a 50% chance for scattered storms with high temperatures in the low-to-mid 80s.
Sunday brings a 40% chance for storms with even more humidity and high temperatures pretty close to normal in the mid 80s.
And get ready for even warmer and muggy weather as we head into the next work week. Stay tuned.
