On her earlier programs, Nicondra showed how the high temperatures across the nation are way lower this week compared to last, the exception being the desert Southwest. An unusually deep (for July) trough has settled over the central plains and lower Mississippi River Valley bringing welcomed relief to Oklahoma City, Dallas & even San Antonio where dew points are in the 50s tonight. Some of that drier air will push into Louisiana, but it doesn’t look like it’ll reach us. We’ll see two more days of above normal shower chances before the trough lifts out and we return to more typical spotty PM storms for the weekend.
We begin August tomorrow, a time of the year when some of our worst hurricanes happened. Fortunately, none of the models are showing any development in our part of the world for the next 10-14 days. They are showing the Eastern Pacific will become very active with one system threatening Hawaii in the 7-10 day time frame. If we are going to see a system organize in the 7-14 day range, it would be along a stalled frontal boundary over the northern Gulf or up along the east coast. Right now, nothing shows that happening. Stay tuned!
