July 27 Sun And Low Humidity Keep Us Warm Then Heat And Some Daily Storms During The Work Week

Saturday, July 27 2024

Morning Report

We are in as nice an air mass as we can expect for late July. Low Humidity will allow for sunshine and a warm-up in the afternoon. A coastal Low is forming off the Carolina coast, and this will pivot towards New England in a few days. It will miss us as we remain dry.

The chance for rain will increase during the work week as the heat and humidity climb. However, with the daily heating, the chance will be low. Nothing well-organized is expected at this time.

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
