7/16- AM rain, but finally no severe!

Good Wednesday all-

Today is going to be a rather pleasant day...in the afternoon. The rain is coming though for this morning, and there will be some embedded thunder in these storms as they move northeast through the day, but they should clear by 1 or 2 this afternoon from west to east. Temps today will be rather comfortable and mild, as highs will be solidly in the mid 80s for most of the region. Tomorrow, we drop to the high 70s, and with low humidity to boot. In fact, tomorrow should be the best day in quite some time! The weekend looks great also, albeit a bit warmer, and early next week looks hot and humid with storms both Monday and Tuesday.

In the Atlantic- Tropical Development is not expected anytime soon

In the Pacific- The low 1250 miles SW of Hawaii has not developed, and it is becoming less likely since wind shear will increase rather soon. There is still, however, a 40% chance of development today or tomorrow.


Today in weather history- July 16, 1998- The waters off the Florida panhandle drop 20 degrees suddenly, from the high 80s to the low 70s, and kills all the fish life in the area due to the sudden drop in dissolved oxygen. The cause is thought to be an up welling of cooler water from the DeSoto canyon 20 miles off the coast.
