Or should I say "stormy" Monday? It is going to be a very, very stormy day today. Expect constant thunderstorms from about noon on, and there is likely to be flash flooding in many regions today. Also possible are damaging winds (50+ mph), hail (Around 1-2" diameter) and tornadoes (yes, really!). This is one of those days where we just really get clocked. Beyond today, tomorrow is a repeat of today, which means more horrid weather. Storms may just continue on Wednesday, although they should be less severe by then. Thursday and Friday look great, albeit rather chilly for mid July, as temps Thursday may not leave the 70s, and we only reach the low 80s on Friday.
It is going to be a fun few days for the weather geeks of the world like me, so here stay tuned here. Any tornado warnings or severe warnings will be posted!
In the Atlantic- Development is not expected anytime soon
In the Pacific- A tropical wave is trying to develop thousands of miles from any landmass (and near the Central Pacific, which is notable because the area near Hawaii actually uses a different name list) either way, there is only a 20% chance of development in the next 5 days.
Today in weather history- July 14, 1911- Baguio, Luzon in the Philippines somehow manages to get 4 feet of rain in just 24 hours! It is the record for the highest 24-hour rainfall in Asia.
Will this appear in CT today? Perhaps, but remember the tornadoes today would likely be rain-wrapped and invisible! If a warning is issued for you- GO TO THE BASEMENT!!
