First Alert Weather Forecast
The 4th of July holiday weekend is upon us and it appears we may really have to keep an eye on the weather, especially late on Independence Day as a wave of low pressure riding along a front could bring storms to the area. It was nice to see the sunshine return on Friday mixed in with some cloudiness as afternoon highs returned into upper 70s and low 80s. The good news for the holiday weekend is that it shouldn't be overly hot with highs into the low 80s both Saturday and Sunday. The storm threat should increase as the 4th of July wears on, with the best chances possibly holding off until we hit the overnight hours into early Sunday. Hopefully we'll be able to get most of the festivities completed before the rain and storms move in but it may be a close call. The frontal boundary should sag to the south a bit heading into the second half of the weekend so we still could see a few scattered storms, but it looks like it will be mainly down south. By early next week it does appear that temperatures will begin to warm up slightly with highs working back into the mid and eventually the upper 80s. Check out the weather blog for more details and have a great holiday weekend!...TG
