A warm Friday before rain, cool weather return
After a bit of a cloudy start, Thursday turned out to be stellar! I hope everyone enjoyed the sun and comfortably warm temperatures in the 70s.
Before I go on, I want to talk more about temperatures. It has been a relatively cool month of June, with T.F. Green yet to record an 80 degree reading!
That may change on Friday, with a nice early summer day expected. Skies will be a bit hazy as upper-level wildfire smoke drifts in from the west.
Clouds will begin to collect in the afternoon as well, with some heavy rain arriving by sundown and continuing through the night. Thunderstorms are possible as well.
The first half of Father’s Day weekend will be wet at times. It looks like we will have a brief break from the rain in the morning, but scattered downpours will develop in the afternoon.
Sunday will be better, with perhaps a few lingering showers. Expected limited sunshine through the first part of the day with some brightening in the afternoon.
Cool weather remains into next week into the official start of summer, which is Wednesday at 10:57 AM. It does look like warmer air could arrive towards the end of next week.
Have a great night!
