Tuesday Morning Report

It does seem like we turned the corner to summer. The heat is on this week, at least for a few days as we head back to work and school. Temperatures will soar into the 90s, while air quality will be reduced in urban areas.

Some relief from isolated storms, then the main storm day expedited later this week to break the head and bring on a beautiful weekend. 

Morning Set Up

Surface Weather

High Pressure in control for the eastern US. This will allow the afternoon to turn hot again, while a line of strong to severe storms will cross the Midwest. That will reach us by Thursday.

A warm start already today…

Afternoon

Another HOT afternoon. The corners will be cooler in the mountains and by the ocean.

 

Air Quality Forecast 

Code Orange for Baltimore/Annapolis and from Philadelphia does through Delaware.

This is unhealthy for sensitive groups, mainly in the afternoon heat. Also suggested to reduce outdoor activities like mowing the lawn and excessive exercise.

 

Storm Forecast:

We may see a cluster of thunderstorms form in the mountains and track through the evening to the east.

Looking Ahead: Wednesday Through Friday

The only active weather system will be this cold front on Thursday. That will break the heat wave and get us back to pleasant weather next weekend.

We may get lucky with the timing of that cold front. Another spectacular looking air mass set for this weekend.

*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.
