01/22 Ryan’s “Humid & Rainy” Monday Afternoon Forecast

It was an humid & rainy start to the week, but today’s cold front will bring much drier and sunnier weather for the rest of the week. Moisture will be forced eastward by the front ushering in considerably drier, but only slightly cooler air. Cooling will be subtle, only dropping temperatures into the lower 60s for a few days, with nights falling into the upper 30s (almost a tropical vacation after the several nights last week), but the absolute lowest it will fall during the day is the upper 50s. By Thursday we’ll begin seeing a warm-up starting as the high pressure pushes East and we begin seeing “return flow,” but it won’t be until Saturday that we’ll see our next significant chance of rain. Next weekend will be very similar to this weekend as temperatures climb into the mid-to-upper 60s, but that increasing cloud cover will keep us from getting too warm until the front moves through. Showers and thunderstorms are expected Saturday, though it’s a little too early to tell if severe weather is likely, but it’s certainly possible. By Sunday we’ll see very similar weather to what we’re seeing now, with considerably drier and slightly cooler weather moves in after a humid & rainy day.
