7/1- July starts wet

Good Wednesday all-

Today is, unfortunately, NOT going to be a good weather day. There are strong thunderstorms crossing the state, and that will continue much of the day today. In fact, it's going to be just nasty today as some storms may be severe...the SPC has placed us under a MARGINAL risk of severe weather...and that'll last pretty much all day today. Otherwise, the forecast remains largely the same as yesterday, so check and see what I wrote yesterday for that info- the Friday/Saturday forecast remains highly volatile!

In the Atlantic- Going to the Sahara Desert to see the dust that's blowing into the basin is far more fruitful than hoping for development.

In the Pacific- A low way offshore SW of Hawaii has a chance of developing, probably in the central Pacific basin, over the next 5 days, but the only place that needs to watch it is, in fact, Hawaii.

Today in weather history- July 1, 1979- Stampede Pass, Washington, is surprised with 6" of SNOW, breaking the July record for that location. Of course, this implies that it's snowed in July there more than one time before. Gah!
