Dry Weather Continues

http://beta.abc3340.com/weather/video.hrb

Back in the saddle after a wonderful visit with my daughter in Chicago. I sure could get used to playing the tourist especially if the weather remained as good as it did for the five days of my stay. Oh, well, as the old saying goes, all good things must come to an end, so here I am back at it. I hope to have a couple of images from my trip this afternoon.

Weather is expected to remain dry for the next several days as the pattern changes to something much more typical for this time of year. Today we are still enjoying the effects of a northwesterly flow pattern thanks to the trough over the eastern third of the Nation. That trough along with the ridge over the western US will be flattening as we become strongly influenced by the Bermuda High.

While the main storm track will be well north of Alabama - along the US-Canada border - moisture will gradually increase so that by Sunday and into the July 4th week we'll see scattered hit-or-miss showers and thundershowers.

Unfortunately as the pattern changes, we'll see temperatures creep back up into the lower and mid 90s.

Tropics remain relatively quiet. A couple of cloudy areas are being watched, however, upper wind flow is not conducive for any development at this time.

Back this afternoon with another web video map discussion. Look for it between 4 and 5 pm.
