June 2 Severe Storm Risk Today Then Pleasant Set Up Into The Weekend
June 2 2022
Thursday Morning Report
NOAA has most of our region in a risk for severe storms today. Some showers have already formed, along with patchy drizzle and fog. The atmosphere is ‘soupy’ and primed for rain and storms to erupt any time, but the most active weather will be between 2 PM and 8 PM. Two simulations are below to compare model timelines.
Friday will be calm and pleasant, with this extending into the weekend.
In the Gulf of Mexico the first named tropical storm may form and cross Florida this weekend. The chance there is up to 80%.

Severe Storm Risk
Potential for storms that may contain damaging winds, large hail, isolated tornadoes, or flash flooding. Any storm may contain dangerous lightning.
Alert Reminder
A Watch means it ‘might’ happen.
A WARNING means it is ‘HAPPENING NOW’. This is more urgent and tracking an event across towns with more specific times.

Tropical Outlook
NOAA and The National Hurricane Center gives a 80% chance for a named storm by Saturday. It will be called Alex.
Heavy rain will cross Florida and may clip North Carolina, but not reach us. However, the high surf could ripple up through our local beaches later in the weekend and next week.
7 Day Forecast
A pleasant cool down tomorrow into the weekend.
The tropical weather will miss us, but may impact the waves on the local beaches.
Much calmer on Bay Waters…

*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.
