7/21 – Rob Knight’s “HOT JULY” Weekend Forecast

This morning bough isolated t-storms to our south with the cloud coverage moving into the Southern 6. This afternoon with intense daytime heating, the activity will develop on shore.

High-pressure in the region will continue to bring OPPRESSIVE HEAT going into the weekend. HEAT INDICES will once again make its way into the low 100 as the ambient temperatures will climb into the low/mid 90s. Today will bring a slight increase in rain potential…mainly this afternoon assisted with daytime heating.

As the high-pressure moves into the NE’tern Gulf Saturday…rain potential will increase for the weekend. With the increase in cloud coverage, temps will stay a bit cooler along with slightly lower heat indices. The very strong blocking pattern will return early next week, cutting off the moisture flow and bringing the HEAT INDICES back into play.
