Morning Report

A light wind from the ocean will keep us cool and bring in a disturbance from the south today. This will primarily be drizzle or light rain, and a lot may not show up on radar.  Tomorrow will be a different story with that storm in the central US that will ignite severe weather across our region in the afternoon and evening. 

Following that will be a building heat wave into next week.

National Satellite Loop: 4 AM to 6 AM

Here we can see the color enhanced cloud tops showing a strong circulation just south of Kansas City, MO.  The bulk of the storms are to the east, which will reach us on. Friday.

While we track that larger storm across the Midwest and Deep South today, we get a damp wind from the ocean. This keeps us cool with drizzle and light rain developing.

*Disclaimer due to frequent questions:

I am aware there are some spelling and grammar typos. I have made a few public statements over the years, but if you are new here you may have missed it:

I have dyslexia, and found out at my second year at Cornell.  I didn’t stop me from getting my meteorology degree, and being first to get the AMS CBM in the Baltimore/Washington region. 

I do miss my mistakes in my own proofreading. The autocorrect spell check on my computer sometimes does an injustice to make it worse. 

All of the maps and information are accurate. The ‘wordy’ stuff can get sticky. 

There is no editor that can check my work when I need it and have it ready to send out in a newsworthy timeline. 

I accept this and perhaps proves what you read is really from me…

It’s part of my charm.
