Rain Chances Decreasing A Bit

We continue to sit south of a stationary front in a moisture rich environment. Scattered showers and storms are likely to form through at least Friday afternoon.

Temps will manage upper 80s…

Daily Rounds Of Showers & Storms Ahead

Abundant tropical moisture sits over us and just to our north is a frontal boundary. This has become the recipe for periods of rain and storms.

Any of the storms will be capable of heavy downpours,…

Rain Chances Gradually Increasing

High pressure over the deep south is helping to keep our weather hot and humid. Temps will manage mid to upper 90s for highs but it’s going to feel more like 105 to 110 degrees when you look at the heat index. That’s the heat and humidity combined and that can feel rough when you’re outside for extended periods. Just…

Summer Heat Cranks Up Again!
