I Came Back For This???

After experiencing a beautiful week of midwestern weather, one that even included a day of severe t-storms, I was disgusted yesterday by what I came back to.  As my two year old nephews would say "Garbage."  And unfortunately this garbage weather is going to persist for two more days.

We have a similar setup to the previous heat-waves that have been plaguing us this summer.  Ridge of high pressure, and hot humid air being scooped up from the SW.  This scenario will continue until Tues afternoon when a cold front makes it way eastward out of the Great Lakes.  This should bring us some more seasonable temperatures for later in the week.

As for this hurricane Cristobal I've been hearing about... yeah, I've heard nothing.  It looks like it will pose no threat for us, but I'm going to refer you to the National Hurricane Center.  Coming from WI, we tend to not delve too deep into hurricane forecasting.

Today:  Hot and humid with scattered afternoon showers/t-storms.  High 91.  Winds SW @ 5-10 mph.
Tonight: Isolated showers/t-storms.  Then clearing.  Low 76.  Winds S @ 4-6 mph.
Tomorrow:  Humid and warm.  Afternoon showers/t-storms are possible.  High 88.
