Cool July Weekend

High temperatures both Saturday and Sunday only warmed into the mid 70's!  Not quite the weather we're used to during the month of July.  While there have been some cooler days this month, we have to look all the way back to the beginning of June to find back-to-back weekend days where the high temperature was in the 70's.

Temperatures for the beginning of the week will warm back into the low to mid 80's, closer to average, but a strong cold front will move through during the day Thursday.  This will bring temperatures for the end of the week, and weekend, back down into the upper 70's.  It looks like this pattern will last through the end of the month, and quite possibly into the beginning of August.

A strong ridge of high pressure will continue to bring heat over the southwest and west, while the jet stream dips to the south from the Great Lakes to the East Coast.  Temperatures over the next two weeks could average close to ten, perhaps even fifteen, degrees below average - especially by the end of the month.
