Month: August 2024

LAST DAY OF METEOROLOGICAL SUMMER! 🙂 It will be cloudy until early afternoon and humid. Showers and storms look likely now this evening. We are on the edge of the Slight Risk for severe storms (2 out of 5) and the Marginal Risk (1 out of 5). The biggest risks are wind and maybe some hail.

Sunday looks like we could see some showers and storms at any time. We are again at a Marginal Risk for severe tomorrow.

The total rain for today and tomorrow could be a quarter to half an inch, but a thunderstorm would bring more! 

Then we have a nice Labor Day and the rest of the week with sunny skies and the 70s!

The Forecast:

Today: Hi 85 ⛈️60% Lo 69 🌧️60%—Scattered showers and thunderstorms are likely, especially in the evening. Patchy fog is possible in the morning and late night. After the morning fog, it will gradually become mostly sunny.

Sunday: Hi 84 ⛈️50% Lo 64 🌙 – A chance of showers and thunderstorms throughout the day. Patchy fog early, becoming partly cloudy at night.

Labor Day: Hi 76 ☀️ Lo 52 🌙 – Sunny and clear with light winds.

8/20/2024 – Cloudy day ahead which will keep temps down, but humidity high.

I saw reports of the most significant hail of 2.5 inches in Sterling! That is incredible! The radar showed explosive development, which meant we had very strong updrafts yesterday, which also threw rain way up in the atmosphere and froze it and then kept that ice ball up in the air for a long time and added layer after layer of ice before they were finally heavy enough to fall because the updrafts could not keep them in the air. It is very rare for this area to see hail that big! 

Tomorrow's rain chances dropped to 50% but should increase slightly. We have a slight risk for severe weather TOMORROW (2 out of 5). Severe wind will be the highest risk, and there may be some hail. I will keep watch.  The total rain outlook is not very wet, but any storm can drop more than the general forecast.

Another severe threat may occur on Sunday.

Then we cool down and turn drier! 

The forecast:

Today: Hi 75 🌦️30% Lo 69 🌦️30% – Patchy drizzle and fog in the morning, with scattered showers and thunderstorms developing later. Mostly cloudy throughout the day and night.

Saturday: Hi 87 🌦️50% Lo 70 🌦️50% – A mix of sun and clouds with a chance of showers and thunderstorms in the afternoon and overnight. There is a Slight Risk of Severe! 

Sunday: Hi 86 🌦️40% Lo 63 🌙30% – Partly sunny with a chance of showers and thunderstorms in the afternoon. Clearing somewhat overnight.

Labor Day: Hi 78 ☀️ Lo 52 🌙 – Sunny and clear.

Tuesday: Hi 75 ☀️ Lo 53 🌤️ – Sunny during the day, becoming partly cloudy at night.

Wednesday: Hi 77 🌤️ Lo 55 🌤️ – Mostly sunny, with some clouds at night.

Thursday: Hi 77 🌤️ Lo 55 🌙 – Mostly sunny and clear.
