A hot and steamy day in store with the potential of Severe!

So we will be hot today! I had said it would be cooler, and, in some ways, yes it is! But for today we have very humid conditions and a front approaching. This should set the stage for an afternoon of heavy showers and storms some of which could be Severe. The Severe Prediction Center has outlined the area for the possibility of Severe storms with high winds the real threat. Rain chances will continue over southern VA and NC tomorrow and then a good chance of some soaking rains Wednesday as the cold front coming through moves back north. See the current day 3 precipitation potential here http://bit.ly/9L7Lp2 .

The week will remain warm to hot with highs upper 80s to low 90s area wide, except Wednesday with the rain. Rain chances return by Friday and highs come down to 85 to 90 degrees by then.

The tropics look interesting as the remnants of Tropical Depression 5 return to the Gulf and are already coming to life. The Hurricane center already has it at a medium risk of developing into a cyclone and it does look like it will. How strong before it poses the threat to the Louisiana coast is hard to say. The Gulf waters are around 90 degrees so it is pulling from a majorly Hot and humid area which makes it very explosive in possibilities

Quickly - I did sign up to see if I could get some interest in Fusion Cash which is just a way to get some extra money - Not sure if it will, but I decided to try it!
