We have experienced a nice stretch of weather over the last 10 days with high temps mainly in the 70s and a couple days in the 80s. Some people might still be complaining about too much rain, but at least it has gotten a little drier. Today will be another dry day, then we will enter a weather pattern where thunderstorms will become more likely for a few days in a row. Along with the increasing chance of rain, we will have increasing heat and humidity.
For today, it looks like another great June day. The humidity will be low. Skies will be sunny to partly cloudy. High temps should hit the mid 70s. I am unsure if you could ask for better weather in the middle of June. Tomorrow will not be too bad either but we will have more clouds and a 30% chance of thunderstorms, mainly later in the day. High temps will be around 80 and the humidity will not be too high.
Friday is when you will definitely notice the arrival of true Summer weather. The heat and humidity will be increasing. High temps should hit the mid 80s and there is a 50% chance of thunderstorms. This same type of weather will continue from Saturday through the middle of next week. High temps will generally reach the mid to upper 80s and there will be a chance of thunderstorms each day. With the higher heat and humidity, there could be some severe weather as well. Be mindful, it is not going to rain all day for several days in a row, but there will be rounds of thunderstorms moving through at times. In between the thunderstorms, there should be plenty of dry weather. Rain amounts during the period (Friday through next Wednesday) could easily be a couple inches or more for much of the area.
If the sun would happen to come out a bit more on one of the days, then high temps might reach the low 90s. Right now it looks like the day with the greatest chance of hitting 90 would be Sunday.
Have a good Wednesday! Meteorologist Justin Loew, 4:01 a.m. 19-June-2013
