Good Wednesday everyone and thanks for blogging with us! We continue to be in a very unsummer-like pattern across the eastern half of the country. You would have a hard time looking outside and guessing that today is the first day of July! We even had a few storms across some areas last night as the weather goes a little crazy on us for a few days.

Highs today will be even cooler than our upper 70s we had Tuesday. Many areas will stay in the mid 70s.

Winds will be very gusty once again. Overall... this pattern is behaving almost exactly like the blog was forecasting from a week ago! Yes... we get one right every now and then. hahaha

The big cutoff low pressure across the lakes has little spokes of energy rotating around it. These little impulses will kick off scattered showers and storms. With the freezing level so close to the ground... hail is of concern! Some golfball sized hail fell in parts of Kentucky very early this morning.

Watch the storms huff and puff with our radars...
 





For areas getting more clouds and scattered boomers today and Thursday... temps may actually have a very hard time getting out of the low 70s for highs! Impressive!

Looking down the road toward the 4th of July Weekend I see warmer temps and some scattered storms. Highs by the 4th will reach the low to maybe mid 80s with a few storms on the move. A better chance for storms will blow in Sunday into Monday as another cold front moves in. This will bring another round of very pleasant temps into the first full week of July.

Have a great Wednesday and take care.

    You're not alone, Ashley. Some of us like hot weather. This has been a poor excuse for summer, so far.
