3/27 – Rob’s Warm/Humid & Windy Forecast

High pressure centered along the Atlantic Coast along with weak low pressure near the Texas-New Mexico border has WINDY conditions through the region.

Main concern in the short term will be the potential for severe weather late Wednesday into the first half of Thursday…mainly in the form of HEAVY RAIN & FLASH FLOODING. Until then, today is going to look a lot like Monday was, with a good bit of cloud cover in most areas and some isolated showers, with most of those dying out shortly after sunset. As the upper low moves eastward Wednesday, the front will get closer to the area, convergence improves and rain chances will increase across the northwest third of the region by late afternoon. Most areas should get into the lower and middle 80s for highs.

The Storm Prediction Center (SPC) is placing the northwest quarter of the area in a Slight Risk for SEVERITY late Wednesday night and northeast quarter of the area on Thursday, with Marginal threat most of the remainder of the area. Best heavy rain threat will be northwest of the area, but can`t totally remove the possibility in our area.

Actual frontal passage should occur Thursday night with drier air for the area for the weekend into Monday.
