The weather remains beautiful today but is turning hotter with highs in the upper 80s.
Rain chances return tomorrow night and last through Monday. The weather turns beautiful on Tuesday!
The Drought is better but still ongoing. I've attached the comparison from last week. The left is the new drought monitor, and the right is from a week ago. Each is improved by one severity level. We still need several more inches of rain region-wide to reverse the drought! Basically, we are better but we need more rain!
The long range is now influenced by the track of Ernesto, the strong hurricane well off the east coast. The interaction of the hurricane and a trough will bring another round of below-normal temperatures to the area in the extended with some warming later. We continue with an above-normal chance of rain as well!
