More unsettled weather is on tap today despite the upper level ridging helping to provide somewhat clear skies. Longest day of the year, max sun angles, plenty of daytime heating provide hot and humid weather again today. Highs will be around 90. These factors along with a couple of shortwave upper level disturbances passing our area will trigger a few thunderstorms this evening and tonight. ETA on storms crossing our area is sometime after 5 PM.

     Any storms that do cross the mountains could produce heavy rainfall & flashy water problems like ponding on roadways. Damaging winds and hail are also possible (the latter being somewhat unlikely). Things will stay muggy tonight. Storms continue after dark. Lows fall into the upper 60s under mostly cloudy skies.

     Cold front will slowly cross the Central Plains Wednesday. Highs will be in the mid to upper 80s during the day. We'll keep the threat of showers and thunderstorms in the forecast Wednesday through early Friday. Again, localized water problems may arise through the end of the workweek. Highs Thursday and Friday will be in the lower 80s. Threat for showers and storms will gradually wane by the end of the week. Cooler temperatures and more tranquil weather awaits for this weekend into next week!
