Evansville Weather Update: 6-30-2012

An extremely hot day yesterday with a high temperature of 107, a new record high surpassing the 1952 old record of 103. On Wednesday the high was 107 as well (which broke the daily record high and monthly temp!), and I think we'll be above 100 for Saturday and Sunday then we'll begin to cool down (basically less hot) next week. Any shower activity today will be north of US Route 50 in our northern counties, and even that is a low chance. High temperatures will be near what they have been for the past couple days, around 105 degrees. That will easily surpass the current record for tomorrow which is 100. For tonight the temperature will drop into the low 70's. Sunday will once again be very hot. High temps may be a couple degrees cooler, but not by much with temps between 100-105 with mostly sunny skies. There could be an isolated thunderstorm, but I wouldn't count on it. Monday morning we'll start in the mid 70's and rise to a humid high in the upper 90's. Once again on Sunday afternoon there will be a chance of a shower or thunderstorm, but it is a low chance. Monday there will be better coverage of showers but just scattered, especially in the afternoon. High temps on Monday will still be hot, in the upper 90's with a mix of sun and clouds. Tuesday morning we'll be in the low 70's with a clear sky. As the past previous days, there will be a chance of scattered showers and thunderstorms in the area. It will be hot & humid, with a couple degree cooler high of 96. The 4th of July looks mostly dry at this point with a hot high STILL in the mid to upper 90's with a mostly sunny sky. A reminder: the city of Evansville has banned ALL private fireworks due to dry conditions. There WILL be the public display along the river Wednesday night. With some moisture coming up from the south, I think the best chance of any rain (only 30%) will be on Thursday. The chance of rain along with the added cloud cover will cool high temperatures in the middle 90's. For Friday it will still be hot with temps starting in the 70's rising into the mid to upper 90's. The sky Friday will be partly cloudy. A preview of next Saturday shows a frontal boundary draped in northern IN, IL, and OH with a band of scattered showers and storms with it. That won't make it here Saturday, so we'll still in the oven with highs in the mid 90's.

This heat wave will just not stop!

Evansville Weather Update: 6-8-2012

Temperatures today were above normal for early June (average high is 84) with a high temperature of 87 at EVV, with dewpoints in the upper 40's and low 50's throughout the day which was quite comfortable. Tomorrow will be a bit more humid but not too bad and tomorrow will also a bit warmer with high temperatures in the upper 80's to near 90. We may see a few afternoon clouds, but most of the day looks mostly sunny. The humidity will rise once again on Sunday with moisture increasing from the south. Also, clouds will be increasing throughout the day as a few scattered showers will move up from the south late in the day. It won't be much of a deal though. Temperatures will be a bit cooler with the added clouds, highs in the low 80's. Really throughout the day Monday there will be a chance of rain due to a approaching cold front along with an upper low. The higher amount of rain I think will be east of highway 41. There could be a strong storm, but we will just have to wait and see. High temperatures on Monday will be near 80.
