Tuesday Morning Update

Good Morning from Morning Meteorologist Kristen Connolly…

We saw scattered showers across the area yesterday mainly staying in our Eastern and Southern counties. Otherwise it was a cloudy day with temperatures in the upper 70’s.

The scenario of today will be much like yesterday. With a stationary front right over our area and an upper level low off in the four corners area throwing disturbances our way, we have plenty of factors to help aid in the chance for thunderstorms. Along with that we have plenty of low level moisture being pushed in from our southeasterly winds. We will see mostly cloudy skies when we aren’t seeing the activity. Because of the extensive cloud cover temperatures will only make it into the mid 70’s with lows just around 60.

We will continue to see likely thunderstorms until at least tomorrow as the upper level low begins to push eastward. It will not fully exit our area until Friday so a 20 percent chance of storms will stay in the forecast Thursday and Friday although we will see a lot more sunshine. Temperatures by the end of the week will get back into the lower 80’s.

The weekend is looking beautiful with sunshine and highs in mid 80’s, lows in the lower 60’s.

Have a great day!
