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.

I would not be surprised to see popup storms ahead of the main line / front but a period oh storms / showers is very likely between 5pm and into the night

Up to 81 here with some breaks in the clouds and more sun now. We'll see if this is enough a break in clouds, showers to get some spots to 90. Next 90s would be post Aug 9.

Did you have 3 or 4 more with April / May?
