WEATHER BEAT: Few Storms Midweek; Memorial Day Weekend Looks Sunny and Warm

Posted

After a beautiful weekend with bountiful sunshine and comfortable temperatures, you may be wondering if this nice weather will last for the Memorial Day weekend. I can tell you it will be nice, but we may have a few showers and thunderstorms to dodge midweek. Let’s get started!

Looking ahead to the next few days, Wednesday looks to be the wettest and stormiest day of the week with showers and thunderstorms likely after 4 p.m. and lasting into the early evening hours. Some storms also have the chance to become severe, although, a major severe outbreak is not expected. On Thursday, we could see a few more showers and thunderstorms, but not as numerous as Wednesday. Friday looks partly cloudy with highs in the mid-70s.

For your much-anticipated Memorial Day weekend forecast, I am expecting summer-like weather with a good amount of sunshine and highs in the low to mid-80s. Memorial Day itself will be sunny with a high of about 85 degrees.

I hope everybody has a happy and safe Memorial Day weekend. Enjoy the unofficial start to the summer season.

My favorite thing to do is study the weather. It is truly fascinating. Nothing beats a good thunderstorm. I became very interested in weather when I lived in Okinawa, Japan for four years and was actually inside a super typhoon.”
