.DISCUSSION...
A hot, typical summer pattern will continue across the area.
Scattered showers and thunderstorms are expected this afternoon and
evening today mainly across the southeast Midlands associated with a
sea breeze front and the approach of a tropical wave/low pressure from
offshore. The chance of showers and thunderstorms spreads inland over the
weekend as moisture increases. A weak cold front will move into the area late
Monday into Tuesday to focus scattered afternoon and evening showers
and thunderstorms. A weak wind shift to the north is expected Tuesday
with slightly drier air spreading south. Moisture increases again mid
week with another weak cold front approaching the area, so expect a
chance of afternoon and evening showers and thunderstorms.
Temperatures will be above normal.
Fog potential for tonight: Patchy fog is possible mainly near
area lakes and rivers.
