A few areas could see a thunderstorm this evening. Tomorrow will be a few degrees cooler, but still very hot. Temperatures will likely peak in the middle to perhaps upper 90s. Some showers or thunderstorms are possible, especially late in the day.

Sunday will turn a bit cooler with readings returning to near normal levels. A soaking rain is possible Monday into Tuesday. The potential exists for a general 0.50"-1.50" rainfall. Highs will reach the middle and upper 70s on both days. It will turn warmer to end the week.

The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was +3.1°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was +1.8°C for the week centered around June 24. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged +2.60°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged +1.37°C. The ongoing El Niño will continue to strengthen through the summer.

The SOI is not available due to data feed issues.

The preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) was +1.312 today.

Finished up a good, if not hot, week down the shore. Water temp was again 58 here, but crystal clear water.. kids loved it at low tide. 

That's chilly, even when it's hot like this.  Pool is 84 and basically feels lukewarm.
