Wild, Then Wonderful

Three confirmed EF0 tornadoes in Queens & Brooklyn, NY yesterday! This
map shows yesterday's storm reports, including wind & hail damage.
There were no injuries reported but there were a whole bunch downed
trees & power lines & structural damage. You can read up on each
report on the SPC's website...

Cool, dry air behind the front brought tranquil weather into the mix &
temperatures fell into the low 50s under a starry sky Saturday night!
Today, dew points in the 50s & temperatures in the 60s & low 70s make
for a forecast that is ALMOST HEAVEN across the Mountain State! High
pressure will move into place & remain in our general vicinity through
pretty much all next week. As a result we'll have LOTS of sunshine and
a dry 7 day forecast. The cool air will stick around into the first
half of next week as lows fall into the 40s & highs only reach the low
to mid 70s. Warmer, more humid air will lift into our area by
Wednesday and highs will creep into the low/mid 80s by week's end.
We'll watch the next front slowly prog eastward out of the northern
Rockies & bring our next shot at rain sometime next weekend. Have a
great week & thanks for reading!
