Slow-Moving Front

July 28th, 2009 at 9:26 am by Jamie Jarosik under Weather

We’re off to another nice start today… but as we head into the afternoon, things could change a bit.  High clouds are around this morning, but we are expecting some cumulus to again develop as we get warmer.  Daytime heating may be enough to spark some spotty showers/thunderstorms as we head into the afternoon hours.  Our airmass is becoming increasingly unstable as warmer and more humid air is advected in ahead of a cold front.  That slow-moving front is still well to our northwest:

Wednesday, that front will be moving through the Miami Valley, bringing us an even better chance of rain.  We’re not really expecting severe weather… just some good soaking rain… probably between a quarter of an inch to a half-inch.

Most of Thursday looks dry, but late in the day, another front will approach us:

So Thursday night into early Friday also looks wet.  The good news… right now the weekend looks dry and warm!

Have a great Tuesday!
