7/26 – Rob Knight’s Wednesday “Midday News” Forecast

From very soggy to very dry conditions. The transition has begun with HOT conditions, along with the HEAT INDEX back in play through Friday.

A cold front will move through the area Saturday/night providing for a line of showers/t-storms with passage. Models are not showing any SEVERE THREAT associated with this front, but one or two stronger t-storms cannot be ruled out. With deep moisture available and heating, there will be the possibility that a few of these could become severe mainly
with winds, hail, plenty of lightning and heavy rainfall.

Once the front moves through, dew pt temps will fall back into the mid 60s. This may not sound like a lot of change but relative to the conditions we have been experiencing, it will be noticed. The dry conditions will also put a lid on the precip chances as well after frontal passage into about Tuesday or Wednesday when south winds will return moisture and sh/ts to the area once again.
