7/29 – Payton’s Monday Afternoon Forecast

FORECAST: Back into the summertime copy and paste forecast. It’s going to be hot and humid with a low chance for a popup t-storm this afternoon. Tuesday brings greater rain chances as quick disturbance moves through. This could help knock temperatures down a degree or two on Tuesday. The rest of the workweek looks pretty similar with hot and humid afternoons and a few t-storms during the afternoon. Overnight tempertures will be in the mid 70s.

TROPICS: A tropical wave still has a low chance of development later this week as it approaches Florida and The Bahamas. It has to make it through a lot of wind shear and land interaction over the next several days, but as it moves closer to Florida it might have a better chance of developing. While it moves northwest for now, a trough over the Eastern U.S. should start to steer it back east later this week. We’ll watch it closely though. Another strong tropical wave off the coast of Africa will move west this week. Too soon to know if this one will do anything, but we’ll also keep an eye on it.
