Good Tuesday everyone and how about that Monday weather? I don't know about you, but the weather had me thinking about football season and the temps over the next several days will REALLY get me in the tailgating mood!  That doesn't take a whole lot, though.

Temps through the rest of the week will be even cooler with the potential for a 2-3 day stretch where some areas fail to get out of the 70s for daytime highs. That would be VERY impressive as we head into the 4th of July holiday weekend.

Temps today are likely to range in the upper 70s to near 80 for many areas.

With some colder air aloft... we will likely see more in the way of some clouds today and over the next several days. Those clouds may produce some scattered showers and storms with the best chance being in areas farther north closer to the low. Winds will be gusty as well... especially in the afternoon hours. Take a look at a map of the air upstairs....



You can clearly see the closed low sitting across the Great Lakes. That map looks like it is straight out of November or December to be honest.

That upper low will begin to pull away by the weekend as temps recover some toward the low and maybe mid 80s. The raw numbers from the GFS show Lexington's highest temps over the next 8 days at 83 degrees! As the warmer air fights in... we may get in on some scattered storms over the holiday weekend and that's something we will focus on a little more over the next few days.

If we continue to look at the overall pattern heading into next week... it really does not change a whole heck of a lot in the overall theme with a northwesterly flow...

GFS July 6th


Meh... summer is overrated anyway!

Have a great Tuesday and take care.

    I have been reading about the solar minimun that has decreased solar activity since last fall , there seems to be a concensus of opinion that this is a climate changing event . The spring and summer so far have been very cool , if I understand this corectly it has caused the atmosphere to recede which has caused space junk to stay in orbit much longer that initially expected . Some science says this will be the begining of a mini ice age comparable to napolians failed attempt to invade russia (His armys froze to death that bitter winter).This information is widely available from NASA, The Russian acedemy of science and many other sources .Its amazing to me no one seems to be aware of this event .If the predictions are accurate there may be 10 severe winters ahead starting with the upcoming winter .
