Weekly Outlook: July 22-28, 2024

The humidity is back, but the heat will hold off for at least a few days.

Wednesday could end up as a rather cool day across the region. Images provided by Pivotal Weather.

A warm front lifts northward across the region today, allowing warm and humid weather to return, with some showers and thunderstorms possible in the afternoon. Another front will remain stalled out near the South Coast, and as waves of low pressure ride along the front, they’ll bring in a daily chance for showers and thunderstorms between Monday night and Thursday. Any storms that do form could produce some heavy downpours, which could lead to some flash flooding in spots, as well as some gusty winds. It’s actually been a little dry for the past month or so, so your lawn might welcome the rain, even if you don’t. With the cloudcover and rainfall, temperatures will be cooler, likely in the 70s and lower 80s for Tuesday and Wednesday. By Thursday night, a stronger cold front will move through with another round of showers and thunderstorms likely ahead of it. High pressure builds in behind the front for Friday and next weekend with some drier air, but it will turn even warmer, with 90-degree readings possible once again.
