Morning Report
A clear sky locally has allowed temperatures to drop into the 50s for most inland areas. The refreshing breeze will build again today, which may result in additional clouds mixing with the sky, like yesterday.
There is a weak area of Low Pressure to our south with some coastal clouds. This is the reason the rocket launch at Wallops Island was scrubbed. We will watch for another attempt tonight.
Temperatures will remain below average through Labor Day!
Next Rock Launch Attempt
The Window will open at 10:30 PM Tonight and last until 3:30 AM Wednesday.
Massive Dust Storm In Phoenix

Wind from a distant thunderstorm kicked up the dry desert soil to produce this massive dust cloud.
The Sky Harbor Airport initiated a 30-minute ground stop delay.
Winds reached 70 mph, and it left 60,000 people without power.
This is officially called: Haboob.

RESTATING MY MESSAGE ABOUT DYSLEXIA
I am aware there are some spelling and grammar typos and occasional other glitches. I take responsibility for my mistakes and even the computer glitches I may miss. 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 during my second year at Cornell University. It didn’t stop me from getting my meteorology degree and being the first to get the AMS CBM in the Baltimore/Washington region. One of my professors told me that I had made it that far without knowing and to not let it be a crutch going forward. That was Mark Wysocki, and he was absolutely correct! I do miss my mistakes in my own proofreading. The autocorrect spell check on my computer sometimes does an injustice to make it worse. I also can make mistakes in forecasting. No one is perfect at predicting the future. All of the maps and information are accurate. The ‘wordy’ stuff can get sticky. There has been no editor who can check my work while writing and to have it ready to send out in a newsworthy timeline. Barbara Werner is a member of the web team that helps me maintain this site. She has taken it upon herself to edit typos when she is available. That could be AFTER you read this. I accept this and perhaps proves what you read is really from me… It’s part of my charm. #FITF
