77 / 67 and partly cloudy. Continue the Puppy days of summer the next two days with a gorgeous weekend enroute. Warm southerly flow Mon (8/7) - Wed (8/9) humid, warm with storms. When and where the sun is out it'll heat up quickly - this is like early Jul, so some chances at 90 in the sunnier / clearer spots and humid. Thu (8/10) - Sat (8/12) transition as trough lifts and the western Atlantic ridge builds west more storms chances by the end of the week and weekend 8/12. Beyond there The W. Atl Ridge builds back into the EC anchoring in a warm humid flow with some heat. Will go more into the pure dog days then. We'll have to see the progression and strength vs the late July projections. But overall warm and humid and likely storms chances (more if the boundary is nearby and more scattered / isolated if stronger W.A.R).

(The Weather Channel) 1930 - The temperature at Moorefield, WV, soared to 112 degrees to establish a state record, having reached 110 degrees the previous day.

(The Weather Channel) 1980 - A record forty-two consecutive days of 100 degree heat finally came to an end at the Dallas-Fort Worth Airport. July 1980 proved to be the hottest month of record with a mean temperature of 92 degrees. There was just one day of rain in July, and there was no measurable rain in August. There were 18 more days of 100 degree heat in August, and four in September. Hot weather that summer contributed to the deaths of 1200 people nationally, and losses from the heat across the country were estimated at twenty billion dollars. (David Ludlum) (The Weather Channel) 1987 - A cold front brought relief from the heat to a large part of the Midwest, while hot weather continued in the south central and eastern U.S. Morning thunderstorms in Nebraska deluged the town of Dalton with 8.71 inches of rain, along with hail three inches in diameter, which accumulated up to four feet deep near the town of Dix. (Storm Data) (The National Weather Summary) 1988 - Thunderstorms produced severe weather from eastern Iowa to Lower Michigan during the afternoon and evening hours, producing golf ball size hail and spawning several tornadoes. A thunderstorm at Maquoketa, IA, produced wind gusts to 75 mph. (Storm Data) (The National Weather Summary) 1989 - Thunderstorms produced severe weather from eastern Nebraska and northeastern Kansas to the Great Lakes Region, with 150 reports of large hail or damaging winds during the afternoon, evening, and nighttime hours. Thunderstorms produced tennis ball size hail at Claremont, MN, and wind gusts to 75 mph at Milwaukee, WI. Thunderstorms representing what once was Hurricane Chantal produced five inches of rain at Grant, MI, and deluged Chicago, IL, with more than three inches of rain in three hours.

74 / 66 and mostly cloudy. Humid with some scattered storms today make way for a very nice weekend. By Mon (8/7) warm southerly flow will bring humidity and more widespread storms chances. Overall warmer and turning more humid and hot towards the end of next week as the trough lifts out back into the GL with the expanding western Atlantic ridge. Storms chances along the boundary - similar to early July but perhaps stronger ridge pushes the hevaiest west of the area.

78 / 54 off a low of 56.. Another gorgeous dry day. Low - mid 80s hot spots could sneak in an 87 or so but just a really nice out with partly sunny skies by the pm. The western ridge is staked in between PHX and Dallas Trough into the northeast with strong N/NW flow. More of the same to open the month Tuesday dry and low humidity near to below normal. By Thu (8/3) the flow is turning more southerly and so up goes the humidity. Fri (8/4) - the coming weekend is warm , humid and back comes storms chances. More towards a tropical transition. Where and when the sun is out it is quite warm with a hot airmass nearby and moving up on the sw flow by Mon 7th - 9th with next 90s potential. Beyond there the Western Atlantic Ridge builds west forces trough to back into the GL with humid , warm and stormy flow long the east cost. Towards the end of next week heights and ridging into the east could heat it up more.

71 / 54 and quite lovely out. A reprieve from the humidity and heat the next 5 days with dry, near or below normal temps low / mid 80s and 60s (some 50s) at night. Tough into the NE with N/NW flow with Ridge re popping in TX/OK similar to late June/early this month. By Wed (8/3) into Thu (8/4) flow is coming around more S/SW with a return to more humid (not bad bad as recent yet). Warmer 8/4 - 8/6, before next front comes through. Beyond into the second week the western Atlantic ridge is building west and forcing trough back towards the GL, with more warm / humid flow. Strong heat remains into the south/ Gulf. Heights look to come up towards the end of the second week and overall warm to hot at times with more frewuent storms potential. Enjoy this marvelous next 5 days.
