Rain And Storms Likely Today Through Saturday
Rain and storms welcomed the official start of summer today. Some of these storms produced locally heavy rain and frequent lightning, but all remained sub-severe. If you didn’t see rain today, there’s a pretty good chance you will over the next couple days.
Most of the storms die down overnight, but isolated showers or storms are possible. Lows tonight drop to the low 70s. If you don’t see rain Thursday, you certainly could on Friday. We may even see a couple waves of rain and storms move through- one during the afternoon, and another in the evening. High temperatures reach the low 90s. The latest hi-res models back off on rain late Friday night, but expect more storms by Saturday afternoon. Even with the rain, we’ll see highs in the low 90s and afternoon heat indeces in the upper 90s.
Fewer storms are forecast Sunday through early next week. Looks like a typical summer pattern with just isolated showers and storms next week. A bit of a warming trend as well, with highs going from the low 90s to mid 90s late in the week.
