Two more days of heat, and then we watch the Gulf!


Another hot one today as highs climb near 100 again. There will be a few clouds around with a light Southeast wind. But, after these next two days, we will be getting quite a suprise! Rain...rain...and MORE rain!
Later this week and through the weekend looks wet. Could see several inches of badly-needed rainfall. It all depends on what develops from a big slug of moisture making its way north from the Caribbean. Computer models try to develop a tropical depression or even a weak tropical storm in the Gulf by this weekend. We will be watching it close the next couple of days. Temperatures this weekend may not get out of the seventies if we see the kind of rainfall that model-data is forecasting.


First REAL cold front is forecasted to arrive next late Monday into Tuesday. I honestly believe this cold front will end our century mark temps for the rest of the year! We might come close, but I honestly think after today and tomorrow, we're done! I don't know about you, but I thought I would never see the day! Wow...Rain, tropical system and a cold front all in one weekend! Could'nt have asked for anything better! ....enjoy!



Today: Sunny and hot, with a high near 97. Heat index values as high as 101. North wind 5 to 10 mph becoming south.
Tonight: Clear, with a low around 76. South wind between 5 and 10 mph becoming calm.
