90+ Degree Heat Late Week

A very mild air mass continues to hover over the state but it will gradually give way to higher heat and humidity. An area of low pressure to our west is wrapping drier air around its westward extent. This is making it feel very nice for June. The low will move away and we will get back to conditions more…

Turning Drier This Week

An area of low pressure to our east will gradually pull away and leave us in a drier weather pattern this week. Until the low is far enough away, we will hold onto at least a slight chance of showers Tuesday. As drier air moves into the region, humidity levels come down and it begins to feel a lot better…

A Quiet Weather Pattern

A summertime look and feel to our weather over the next several days. High pressure will maintain a mostly sunny and dry pattern. Temps start out in the mid to upper 60s while afternoon highs hover in the upper 80s to lower 90s. The only relief from the heat may come from one of those random pop up showers but…

Sunny & Dry

We have a chance to dry out for several days. A mainly clear and dry air mass has taken over and it’s sticking around until further notice. High pressure is settling over the deep south. This will provide us lots of sunshine and dry conditions well into next week. Temps will feel rather comfortable in the early morning but quite…

Drier Air On The Way

Our tropical-like weather pattern is on the way out and we’re heading towards dry and milder days ahead. A frontal boundary moves through the state and pushes the rainy weather to our east overnight. High pressure builds in behind the front and we get to enjoy some sunny and drier weather conditions for a change. The drier air will produce…

Tropical-Like Through Wednesday

A moisture rich tropical air mass remains in place and it’s sticking around through Wednesday. Rain and storms will continue to move across the area. Some storms will drop heavy rainfall at times. The risk for a few stronger to severe storms will come into play Wednesday afternoon. A frontal boundary will advance southward into the deep south. More showers…

Rain/Storms Through Midweek

T.D. Cristobal continues to slowly pull away but deep tropical moisture lingers over the region. As a result, showers and storms will develop over us through midweek. There could even be a few strong to severe storms as a frontal boundary moves through the area on Wednesday. The main threat will be damaging winds. The front moves south of us…

Rain Chances Increase This Weekend

The hot and humid days of summer are here until further notice. The rest of this work week will be more of what you’ve seen the last few days. Temps start out in the upper 60s to lower 70s and climb into the upper 80s to lower 90s. Moisture continues to stream into the area and this is fuel for…

Warm & Humid With Daily Showers/Storms

A warm and humid air mass has taken over our weather and its sticking around for a while. High pressure to our east will continue to funnel moisture from the gulf into the state. This will lead to scattered showers and storms each day. We may stay under severe storm criteria but storms that do develop will be capable of…

So much for a drier weather pattern across our area this week. It now looks like gulf moisture will continue to flow into the state and this will lead to occasional showers and storms. There will still be ample sunshine and this will aid in temps warming into the upper 80s to around 90 degrees each afternoon. We’re watching the…
