Forecast for Thursday, August 30, 2018

That escalated quickly! Monsoon 2018 loves us! She really really loves us! Outflow from storms overnight in Mexico have brought us increased moisture and some cloud cover this morning. So. We have a slight chance of storms back in the forecast! Just a 10% today, tonight through tomorrow night, but you are saying there’s a chance. High near 99 today and 100ish tomorrow.

Then a system approacheth from the west giving us a southerly flow to pull up moisture from the south plus energy and wind shear (different wind directions at different elevations in the atmosphere) will not only increase our chance for storms, but some of them may be severe. Call it a 40% chance for afternoon storms Saturday and a 30% chance for evening storms and a high in the mid 90s.

Scattered storms Sunday with a high in the mid 90s. 20% chance Labor Day mid 90s. 10% Tuesday mid 90s. 20% Wednesday mid 90s. Viva Monsoon 2018!
