Weather Watch
By MARK HANOK
After the intense heat
wave, followed by cooler air
but continued above normal
temperatures, we got a refreshing
change to a much
cooler weather pattern.
During the upcoming
week, the large upper-level
trough will push eastward,
allowing for high pressure to
build in from the west, and
settle over the Ohio Valley.
With a west to southwest
flow around the high, temperatures
will get back to
normal as the summer season
begins this weekend.
On Friday, the upper-level
low will still be in place
over eastern Canada, but a
westerly flow will bring milder
air, along with the chance
of a shower, as cold, unstable
air continues aloft. With intervals
of clouds and sunshine,
highs will be in the
lower 70’s.
Skies will be partly to
mostly sunny on Saturday,
with highs from 75 to 80 degrees.
A warm front will approach
from the south and
west on Sunday, bringing the
chance of showers in the afternoon,
but most of the time
skies will be partly sunny,
and highs in the mid to upper
70s.
Early next week, the front
will become stationary not
far to the south, bringing
variable cloudiness on Monday,
with a few showers and
the chance of a thunderstorm.
Highs will be in the
mid-70s.
On Tuesday, skies will be
partly sunny with the chance
of a shower and highs around
80 degrees.
