SEVEN DAY WEATHER HEADLINES
AND MY 7 DAY FORECAST CONFIDENCE …
(1) I generally expect a stable late spring weather pattern through the next seven day forecast period with more sunshine with temperatures warming back closer to seasonal levels.
(2) As the weak front that passed through our area with the thunderstorms in the predawn hours on Wednesday passes back northeastward through the area Sunday night into the first part of next week, we could see an uptick in rain and thunderstorm chances Monday through Tuesday night.
(3) A drier and more weather pattern builds over the area again for middle into latter part of next week before rain chances reappear again by the following weekend as a new surge of moisture moves into the area from the Gulf of Mexico.
Based on NWS/Weather Prediction Center guidance, rainfall will average around 0.50 to 0.75 inch for the IH35 corridor over the next seven days.
MY FORECAST CONFIDENCE OVER THE NEXT SEVEN DAYS…
A high to very high confidence forecast continues today and tonight and continuing through the weekend with a high confidence forecast for most of next week.
