Precipitation summary… Precip amounts for the first five days of June look pretty good.
Forecast discussion…
There is nothing on radar in our area Friday morning.
Forecast highlights…
*** Slight chance for a spotty afternoon shower or thunderstorm through Sunday. ***
*** A better chance for afternoon showers and thunderstorms Monday through Wednesday. ***
*** And then warm and dry weather for a while, more typical for June. ***
Rest of Friday through next Thursday…. Friday, Saturday, and Sunday moisture will decrease but we’ll remain unstable. Expect just a few spotty afternoon showers and thunderstorms mostly over the mountains.
Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday there will be a slight increase in moisture and instability leading to a better chance for scattered afternoon showers and thunderstorms.
Precip amounts each day through the weekend will mostly be zero. A lucky spot or two could get up to 0.05”. Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday up to 0.10” is possible each day.
Temps… Friday highs will be near 70 to the high 70s and lows will be in the mid-30s to mid-40s. For the rest of this period highs will be in the mid-70s to mid-80s and lows will be in the high 30s to high 40s.
Winds… Friday afternoon gusts will be 25-30mph. For the rest of this period afternoon gusts will be around 20mph, but isolated stronger gusts are possible near showers and thunderstorms.
Thursday through next weekend… Drier, more stable air will move in. It will be warm with lots of sun, and dry weather.
Temps… Thursday and next Friday highs will be in the mid-70s to mid-80s and lows will be in the high 30s to high 40s. Saturday and Sunday highs will be in the high 70s to high 80s and lows will be near 40 to the high 40s.
Winds… Afternoon gusts will be around 20mph.
The 8-14 day period… More typical for this time of year, fairly stable and drier southwest flow will set up. There’s still a slight chance for a spotty afternoon shower or thunderstorm, but I expect most of us to stay dry.
The next post will be on Sunday.
