7 AM update.

Let's look at the future-cast radar. These are never exact, but take the general idea from it.

Increasing chances for scattered showers and locally heavy thunderstorms this afternoon into tonight.

Storms will form to our west-southwest and move into our region.

Here is what the radar might look like at 1 PM and 5 PM. These storms will be moving northeast.

Again, it won't be exact, but you get the idea.

Scattered thunderstorms will develop later today (esp afternoon and evening).

Those thunderstorm chances will continue into the week ahead.

As is usually the case, late spring and summer thunderstorms can produce frequent cloud-to-ground lightning, heavy downpours, and strong wind gusts.

There is a low-level risk of severe weather today and tomorrow.

Which is a better measure of how sticky it is outside?

Humidity
Or
Dew points.

Dew points are usually a better measure of what makes it feel sticky outside.

Most people have a good grasp of how the weather makes them feel.

One approach to explaining dew point is to say that dew points above 65 F make it feel sticky and humid outside, while dew points below 65 F make it feel more comfortable in terms of air stickiness.

Dew points in the fifties are quite nice (even when it is hot).

The higher the dew point is, the more moisture there is in the air.

The higher the dew point is above 65 F, the stickier it will feel outside (feels like you have to breathe in a bunch of moisture with each breath).

Dew points in the 70s are muggy. Dew points in the mid 70s to middle 80s are oppressive.

Here are this morning's dew points. As temperatures rise, these feel increasingly sticky.

Dew points will be even higher this afternoon and into the coming days.

Here comes summer weather.
