Watching multiple cold fronts swing this week

Tonight’s Forecast:
We are muggy and buggy this evening. Humid air does not cool as efficiently as dry air, which is why we will start off our Tuesday 15-20 degrees warmer than Monday morning.
Tuesday’s Forecast:
Another front approaches Tuesday, this will bring a low chance for showers but another drop in humidity once the front clears. We’ll even notice temperatures dropping from the 90s to the mid-80s from Tuesday to Wednesday.
We’re watching and tracking patchy fog for your 8 am morning drive. Wake up with us for a check of your morning lows and the fog. Make sure to take it nice and slow and use your low-beams not your high beams. High beams reflect off fog - creating glare and reducing visibility. We’re also tracking a chance for isolated thunderstorms by mid-afternoon. This front will usher in cooler, less humid air by Wednesday morning. It’s on par with the other weaker fronts we’ve had.
Tuesday’s Futuretrack:
We’ll watch for a line of isolated thunderstorms for our areas to the north during the afternoon hours.
Then we’ll watch for the front to push through bringing the chance for storms for our coastal communities by dinner time on Tuesday.
After the Front: The front will drop our morning lows, just a little bit. Kind of close to the fall average, but compared to our HOT-tober highs we’ve had it will feel refreshing by Wednesday.
Elevated Fire Risk:
Burn bans are remain in effect across the area with only a few counties left without bans. While the introduction of some rain chances this week are good in terms of bringing some rain chances, however, we would need a few weeks in a row of consistent fronts with lots of rain before they would likely take off some of the burn bans.
- Avoid spark-causing activities, as fires can flare up fast.
- Never leave a fire burning unattended or without purpose.
- Secure tow chains to prevent dragging and sparking.
- Don’t drive or park over tall grass.
- Avoid tossing lit cigarettes onto the ground.
Your extended forecast:
Our first cold front this week arrives Tuesday. Our subsequent cold front comes at the end of next week to keep our highs into the mid-80s. Our weekend front will also bring our next substantial chance for rainfall with the whole area having the potential to see over an inch of needed rainfall.
