Off and On Storms
IF I HAD YOU, KEVIN, A COUPLE OF NIGHTS AGO THAT SHE’D PLAY TO 1120. NO RAIN. WOULD YOU HAVE BELIEVED IT? I CERTAINLY A POSSIBILITY BECAUSE IN THESE TYPES SET UPS, IT’S REALLY HARD TO SAY EXACTLY WHEN AND WHERE THE STORMS WILL OCCUR. WE KNOW THAT THEY’RE GOING TO HAPPEN. AND AS I SAID IT’S GOING TO RAIN EACH DAY OVER THE WEEKEND. REMEMBER, IT RAINED THIS MORNING AND WE’VE GOT MORE STORMS COMING IN HERE. IN SHORT ORDER. SO IT’S ABOUT TO STORM AGAIN. THIS WILL REPEAT ITSELF ON SATURDAY AND AGAIN ON SUNDAY. SO YOU JUST HAVE TO TUNE IN FOR FREQUENT UPDATES. WE WERE FORTUNATE BECAUSE WE WEDGED OURSELVES BETWEEN TWO STORMS, ONE TO THE SOUTH, ONE AREA OF STORMS TO OUR NORTH. THAT’S STILL ONGOING. BUT NOW THERE ARE STORMS BEGINNING TO DEVELOP WHERE THERE HAS BEEN AVOID RADAR. IT’S VERY QUIET. BUT LET ME SHOW YOU JUST ON OUR DOORSTEP, WE HAVE SOME INTENSE STORMS DROPPING SOUTH OF I-70, WORKING THEIR WAY DOWN INTERSTATE 74 HERE TONIGHT, ALMOST NON LIGHTNING WITH THESE DOWNPOURS. MOST OF THEM ARE JUST BELOW SEVERE THRESHOLD, BUT I’D KEEP AN EYE ON IT. I WON’T RULE OUT BECAUSE IT IS STILL VERY WARM, VERY HUMID TONIGHT. AND THE INGREDIENTS ARE AT LEAST SUPPORTIVE OF STRONG TO MARGINALLY SEVERE STORMS. SO NASTY WEATHER NOW MOVING INTO FAYETTE UNION COUNTY’S LIBERTY OVER TOWARDS CONNERSVILLE. AND YOU CAN SEE HOW THESE STORMS ARE MARCHING THEIR WAY DOWN. NEXT IN LINE, FRANKLIN COUNTY, THEN RIPLEY COUNTY. AND THEN IT LOOKS LIKE EVENTUALLY DOWN TOWARDS THE 275 LOOP AFTER MIDNIGHT. SO LUCKY THIS EVENING THAT WE WERE ABLE TO GET EVERYTHING IN WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS. TEMPERATURES ARE VERY WARM. SO THOSE STORMS WILL NOT LIKELY WEAKEN. THEY’RE GOING TO KEEP GOING THROUGH THE NIGHT TONIGHT. SO GOOD THING THE CONCERT HAS WRAPPED UP WHEN IT HAS, THIS WILL GIVE FOLKS SOME TIME TO GET HOME AND GET SETTLED BEFORE THE STORMY WEATHER MOVES IN. IT’S 77 DEGREES OUTSIDE. LOOK AT OUR DEW POINT. YOU WALK OUTSIDE TONIGHT, IT FEELS LIKE STORMY WEATHER, RIGHT? IT FEELS LIKE IT COULD STORM AT ANY POINT. SO THE THREAT FOR SHOWERS AND STORMS GOING UP FROM THIS POINT FORWARD THROUGH THE NIGHT TONIGHT, I THINK IN THE MORNING THERE WILL STILL BE SOME LINGERING STORMS AROUND THE AREA. THE FORECAST HASN’T CHANGED. IT’S ALL ABOUT TRACKING STORM CLUSTERS THROUGH THE WEEKEND. IT’S JUST REALLY TRICKY ON WHERE THEY DO DEVELOP AND THE EXACT TIME ON THEM. WE’RE IN THAT RING FIRE. BASICALLY, WE’RE ON THE PERIPHERY OF SOME REAL INTENSE AND HUMIDITY. SO WHEN IT’S NOT STORMING, IT’S GOING TO BE AWFULLY HOT LIKE IT WAS THIS EVENING. BUT WE’LL WATCHING ROUNDS OF SHOWERS AND STORMS COME OUT OF THE MIDWEST. IN FACT, YOU CAN SEE HOW QUIET IT IS. NOW, LOOK WHAT WAS UP THERE THIS MORNING. THAT’S WHAT WAS THERE THIS EVENING. AND NOW WE HAVE STORMS FILLING IN IN BETWEEN THE TWO. SO FUTURE CASH SHOWS YOU WELL, AGAIN, NOT DOING A GOOD JOB ON PREDICTING THESE STORMS BECAUSE BY 1 A.M. THESE STORMS, I CAN ALMOST WITH CERTAINTY SAY THERE WILL BE STORMS IN THE TRI STATE. BUT THE THEME IS IT TURNS STORMY OR THROUGH THE NIGHT PROBABLY WILL HAVE SOME STORMS AROUND IN THE MORNING AS WELL. THEN WE’LL GET A LITTLE BREAK IN THE AFTERNOON, MUCH LIKE WE HAD TODAY WITH SOME STEAMY SUNSHINE. I’M NOT SO SURE. CONCERT GOERS TOMORROW NIGHT WILL BE AS FORTUNATE TONIGHT BECAUSE I DO THINK THERE’S A GREATER TOMORROW NIGHT THAT STORMS COULD HAVE AN IMPACT ON EVENTS AROUND THE AREA. LOOK AT THIS. HERE WE ARE SUNDAY AFTERNOON. MORE STORMS AROUND THE AREA. REMEMBER, ANY TIME WE HAVE THESE STORMS ALL SEVERE WEATHER HAZARDS ARE ON THE TABLE, PRIMARILY WIND AND HAIL CONCERNS. BUT MAYBE NOT JUST LIMITED TO THOSE. SO HUMID WITH STORMS MOVING IN HERE OVERNIGHT AT 68, EARLY RAIN AND STORMS TOMORROW. THEN MUGGY SUNSHINE FOLLOWED BY MORE STORMS. 86 FOR AN AFTERNOON HIGH. HERE’S A LOOK AT YOUR DAY PLANNER SHOWING THE BREAK. KIND OF IN THE AFTERNOON INTO THE EARLY EVENING. HERE’S YOUR SEVEN DAY FORECAST. SO BASICALLY IT’S REPEAT CYCLE SATURDAY, SUNDAY, WEATHER IMPACT DAYS. FORTUNATELY, IT DOES LOOK LIKE MONDAY. WE’LL BREAK THE PATTERN HERE. SHOULD START TO TURN A LITTLE LESS HUMID FOR US AND SHOULD DRY IT OUT. HEADING INTO INDEP
Between bouts of storms it is going to be steamy.
