6/19- Wet then dry

Good Thursday all!

Unfortunately, the forecast changed dramatically yesterday because that cold front that I was concerned about bringing severe weather to the area stalled to our west and instead came in overnight, giving us pouring rain this morning and therefore a nasty surprise! On a more positive note, the rest of the week looks simply fantastic, with low humidity and temps in the high 70s and bright sunshine! Graduation day looks fantastic as well and, in fact, the only chance of precip in the next 7 days after today comes with a thunderstorm risk on Tuesday. On an interesting note, the power at my home in Wallingford just flashed for no apparent reason...geez!

In the Atlantic & Pacific- Tropical Development is not expected

Today in weather history- June 19, 1794- A major tornado (probably an EF3 or EF4 on the modern scale) hits Branford, CT and in a barn door is found ten miles away from it's original source!

BONUS- June 19, 2002- Parts of New Jersey are buried under 8 inches of hail, causing people to break out their snow shovels about five months early!
