Good Tuesday all-
Sadly, guess what today's forecast is? If you guessed pouring rain, you're a winner! Thankfully, though, this is the final day of this consistent rain before we get a two day long break...then showers are possible Friday. The weekend, fortunately, looks quite nice, which is different from the forecast yesterday as it seems the system we expected is going to miss us. That would be nice...but let's not be too optimistic yet as things can certainly change. Most of the temperatures this week will be at or very near 80...except today, where I doubt many people even get out of the 50s.
In the Atlantic- Officially, tropical development is not expected in the next five days. However, one model in particular (the CMC) has been insistent on developing a tropical storm in the Bahamas this weekend. That said, it's often one that spins up too many tropical systems, so it's not particularly likely, so I'd give it a 20% development chance.
In the Pacific- Hurricane Andres has weakened to a 105mph category 2 storm, far weaker than it was yesterday. However, Tropical Depression 2-E has strengthened into Tropical Storm Blanca with 50mph wind...and it's expected to be very near category 5 intensity at some point in the next week. Horrifyingly, it could come very, very close to the Baja Peninsula as a category 2 by early next week
Today in weather history- June 2, 1985- Lightning strikes a metal bed through a window, killing the man in it...but letting his wife walk away completely uninjured. It's really something the way lightning can behave.
