7/31 – Payton’s Tuesday Afternoon Forecast

We started off this morning with a few showers & t-storms, and we continue to watch numerous thunderstorms develop. The activity is producing very heavy rain, gusty winds and frequent lightning. We will watch the flash flooding threat go up throughout the afternoon and evening as the rain is expected to be in the area for the rest of the day and going into tonight. On Wednesday rain chances will continue. Temperatures will be running below average in the lower to mid 80s. Into the end of the workweek and the weekend, rain chances will begin to go down as upper level ridging builds back into the region. This also means temperatures will go back to normal in the lower 90s.

TROPICS: No tropical development is expected over the next five days.
