Rain is coming - will make its way over the area the next 24 hours

Today we will remain much cooler than we have seen most of the summer. Clouds will be on the increase and rains will fall in SW Va and start to overspread the area slowly during the next 24 hours. Sunday will be a showery day with rain and some thunderstorms. Rains will be welcome as much of the area remains gripped in a moderate drought with a few in sever conditions. See http://www.drought.unl.edu/dm/monitor.html for more information. Virginia is not expecting that much rain. See QPF prediction http://bit.ly/c71SnM .

Heat will return next week with highs in the 90 to 95 degree level. After the rains and storms pass through the next 24 to 36 hours the next chance at some thunderstorms will be Tuesday Wednesday, and Thursday but this will be the typical summer time risk of storms and nothing too organized.

The tropics have a couple areas of interest and they could develop. Next system would be names Colin.

I am hoping to be more active on posting as work and life get in better alignment!

All for now!

Very Hot today! Severe possible! Relief coming

The temperature will cook again today. Temps around 100 with heat index values still between 105 and 110!
Severe storms are a definite possibility as a front that promises lower humidity and about 10 degrees cooler! That is going to be such a welcome relief! Please stay safe today from the heat and also keep tuned in for possible severe storm watches and warnings!

More later!

Do I really need to tell you what the weather is?

I mean, it is hot! Hottest day of the year! BUT, I bet you figured this out on your own! Just be careful today! This heat is a killer and will likely do it today! Do not put yourself in that situation!

A Front will approach and cross the area tomorrow and tomorrow night. I will say though, that this will not limit the heat as much as you would hope! There is a risk of strong and severe storms as the front moves through. We will *COOL* to the 90 to 95 degree range by Monday. Not really cool, but we will also see less humidity. Next week temps will be in the 90 to 95. After Sunday's storms, another set of storms will be Wednesday.

Bonnie is pretty much fizzled out. The system has just collapsed. This is nothing compared to the serious rainfall up in Chicago with 4 to 6 inches of rain. That was after Wisconsin was slammed yesterday with 4 to 7 inches of rain.

Also of note, a tornado warning was issued for New York City yesterday with a storm that moved through. The Northeast Quadrant caught some great videos and posted them as well as was on YouTube and was interviewed on the Weather Channel this morning. Way to go!

All for now!

Heat is relentless and hotter! Bonnie!

Everyone is talking about it! We are all feeling it! Hot temps in the
100 to 105 range today and tomorrow. With the humidity we could see
heat index values hit the 110 t 115 range tomorrow! The hottest days
we have had yet. Sunday will bring some showers and storms knockibg
the temps back a bit.

Temps Monday through Wednesday next week will just be in the upper 80s
north while central and southern areas still remain within a few
degree of 95. After Sunday the next chance of rain will be next
Thursday. I do wonder if the remnants and moisture will fuel some more
chances of rain next week. We will see.

Bonnie is moving rapidly to the NW and will strike Floriday later
today. Winds remain near 40 mph. Bonnie may become a depression over
FL and then restrebgthen in the Gulf before maybe hitting Louisiana as
a strong tropical storm, or, at most, a minimal hurricane.

We will see! Stay cool!

MOTS - More of the same

Temps today in he Low to upper 90s for most. Northern third of VA, MD, DE, NJ, and Northern half of WV are outlined for the possibility of more severe weather today.

Looks like the wave near the Dominican Republic could become Bonnie and pose a threat to Florida, but this morning it is looking less impressive on Satellite but more impressive on models. Recon and NOAA flights scheduled for today.

All for now.

Relentless 90s!NC likely to see more rains Today|Tomorrow more chances area wide.

Well, we continue on with the 90s! Let the Heat roll on! NC really had a nice soaking in many places. More storms could fire in that region today and more widespread chances of rain will happen tomorrow..The temperature forecast is easy. In the Mountains and right on the coast upper 80s. Low to mid 90s elsewhere!

Will the heat let up? There are some signs of a heat re-positioning in the US. The heat could retrograde westward and make the upper plains. We are at least 7 to 10 days before that would happen.

The tropics remain somewhat unfavorable for tropical development. This could or will change in August but there will be a lot of moisture down in the Caribbean and we could see some development down there this week, but the systems still have some turbulent upper air patterns.

All for now!

North Carolina is getting soaked with widespread rains and floods and severe east!

I really was too focused on my immediate forecast area this morning. The storms with severe and heavy rains are lined up west to east across the center of the state. Seeing flood warnings in Eastern NC. Rains also in South Central Virginia.

A lot of storminess down that way. Also I missed the locally severe storm in Kilmarnock neat the mouth of the Rappahannock. Other isolated severe possible in SE VA.

Busy day down that way! Stay alert!

Hot! That is what is! Summer and heat! WE GOT IT

So what do the nxt 5 to 7 days have in common? 90+ degrees is likely the answer! It is just a Hot one this summer! And I have nothing really to add. It will be that way for a while!

There could be isolated storms tomorrow Monday and Tuesday. More likely on Tuesday.

All for now!

Sorry to re-post this! Help me decide the future or Mid Atlantic Weather!

There are tons of links, and many broken! Do I REALLY need them? Should I just create a site for the Mid Atlantic Weather myriad of sites?

What sites you  may ask?

A lot of showers and storms continue to move over the region. Some flood warnings are up for areas of Northern VA. Please be careful!

Temps and Humidity creeping up with Thunderstorms and showers today and tomorrow!

Storminess should make an appearance again today and especially tomorrow as 2 disturbances cross teh region. Rains could be locally heavy, especially tomorrow! Highs will be in the upper 80s to low 90s and humidity should really be on the upswing.

Storminess should become less widespread Wednesday and then Thursday and Friday look fairly dry. Highs will continue in the 90 to 95 degree range.

All for now!

Warmer air - but much less humid - Week coming of typical summer weather storms and warmth

Many locations yesterday reported rain totals of 1 inch or more, and some had much more! Today the dryer air is very refreshing and will make the hot 90 degrees seem cool compared to the roasting of last week. This week then presents 90 to 95 degree temps all week with daily chances of showers and storms in the afternoon. Better chances will occur Tuesday, but daily chances will begin Monday straight through Friday. We can REALLY use the rain as parts of the region are in a moderate drought.

Tropics are very quiet for now and look that way for the near future. We are behind what was going to occur in 2005 when Emily was born the day previous and she became a Category 5. That year was so intense!

All for now!

WHAT WAS I THINKING - LOCALLY HEAVY RAINS!

Big rains in the mountains are slowly moving east! As much as 3 to 5 inches of rain are possible in the Shenandoah. There are already reports of up to 2 inches of rain!

Be careful too! As roads that have been dry for weeks get rain the oil will be very slick! Showers and storms are scattered around the area! Locally heavy rains possible!

All for now!

Rain is coming but not too much

Rain is coming. It has entered the western areas already. I do suspect
some isolated Severe and locally heavy rains overnight and tomorrow
morning. Cooler tomorrow and a return to 90s Sunday.

SOOOO HOT!

So I have been Tweeting on Breaking Mid Atlantic Weather (actually Re-tweeting) at http://twitter.com/breakingmawx all the news of the heat! HOT! 100 or higher for so many!
At one point Frederick County Maryland was reporting 106! INSANE. Some relief (low 90s instead of upper 90s and 100s) will come Thursday and through the weekend.

STAY COOL - STAY HYDRATED - STAY INDOORS if you can!

All for now!

Dangerously HOT! An unexpected cool down!

We will sizzle the next 2 days, but have relief and rain that will come and visit later this week. No need to go into details! HOT temps of 100+ today and tomorrow. Then, interestingly, a low to the Northeast, off the Atlantic coast, will drift south westward and bring temperature and rain relief to the area! That is great news and it was not expected until the last 24 hours as the models picked up on this Low. That means Thursday,Friday, and Saturday will see highs in the 80s and low and middle 90s verses the upper 90s and lower 100s. Rain also is a possibility each day with Saturday showing the best potential.Rain chances will remain through the weekend for southern areas.

The tropics were busy the last few days. It looked like Bonnie had formed just as a Low headed into Louisiana! The disturbance over the Southwestern Caribbean still could become a Depression.

All for now! STAY COOL!

HAPPY FOURTH!Hotter today!MUCH HOTTER tomorrow! More tropical stuff

Not much to add from yesterday other than, the heat up is on and it is gonna be brutal! Highs will be around 100 starting tomorrow and last until Friday! Not much more to say!

The Tropics have another Invest that came to light last evening. I think the low in the Gulf is a done deal and will head onto shore later today. The System in the lower Caribbean needs some watching and just may be the next system to threaten Mexico or Texas! Some models do show it strengthening, but it will take some time to get a true sense of what it will do. I am suspecting it will make it to Tropical Depression status.

Did you enjoy the break from the heat? It is OVER! 100+ degrees for 5 straight days is possible

Happy 4th of July! We still live in the best country in the world, though we have many challenges and our foundations have been undermined, we are the country that so many want to come to! God has blessed America, you should really take time to figure out why!

We will be a HOT, and I mean HOT! 100 degrees is possible for 5 days in many locations starting Monday! I see no rain and now parts of the region have hit moderate drought status.

After Hurricane Alex, which was one of the strongest June Hurricanes on record (it had a pressure of 947 MB) and if it had time it would have probably become Major, we now have a disturbance in the Gulf that we should watch, and a wave is about to come off Africa

Please be careful tomorrow as we will have low humidity and the sun angle would mean a good chance of Burning as the IV Index is very high at 9!
