8/8- A Week of Misery

Good Monday all-

No point in beating around the bush here- this week looks like a totally miserable week of weather unless for some reason you like heat and humidity. For the majority of our week, highs will be nearly or above 90 degrees with intense humidity and afternoon thunderstorms. The two exceptions? Today and tomorrow but the problem is that it's the thunderstorm threat that does not exist today and tomorrow- it'll still be hot but a bit less humid than it will be later in the week. I'd recommend you do your outdoor activities today if you have them- you do NOT want to be out there from Wednesday to Sunday.

Yesterday, I attended my first PGA Tour event and saw the lowest round ever recorded in PGA Tour history- it was absolutely surreal and warrants a mention in here

Tropical Storm Javier formed yesterday and is almost right on top of the Baja Peninsula. It should make landfall at about 55mph, and is not going to do much except disrupt the lives of those living there. The Atlantic, in an event extremely rare for August, is entirely quiet and no development is expected for a long time.

Today in weather history- August 8, 1882- Up to 6" of snow falls on a ship in Lake Michigan, and some shoreline communities also report flurries. Yeah...that must have been a really nasty surprise.
