Technical Forecast Discussion
Key Messages:
- There is a threat for severe weather Thursday and Friday as a system comes through our region.
- Humid conditions will stick around for the rest of the week.
Key Message 1…
A weak upper-level ridge on Thursday will cause a highly unstable environment. While models are only showing limited convection coverage, scattered thunderstorms are expected to develop in the afternoon. Due to our soupy conditions, locally heavy rainfall and damaging winds are the main threats for the day. Saturated soils from yesterday’s rainfall may promote the chance for localized flooding throughout the day as well. A cold front will sweep through Friday prompting a chance for widespread showers and thunderstorms throughout the day.
Key Message 2…
Humid conditions are expected to stick around Thursday and Friday. High temperatures are looking to stay in the mid-to-upper 80s with dew points in the 60s and 70s throughout both days. As the front passes, dew point temperatures will drop back into the 50s for Saturday, but build back into the 60s and 70s on Sunday as humid conditions return to end the weekend.
