Summertime pattern - how long will it go?


There will be no shortage of hot weather this week, so be sure to take it easy. Even though the temperatures may drop a few degrees (after Monday) it will still be quite hot for much of the week. We don't have any significant change coming this week where highs will fall back into the 70s and 80s (like last week) The upper level winds are so weak that we can't expect any big change in the weather to happen fast. 


The big high pressure that is responsible for the excessive heat will move from Amarillo to eastern Texas by Tuesday/Wednesday. As that happens, there is some monsoon moisture that will get pulled into western and northern Kansas, which should allow for some rain to return to the area Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday. Although mainly scattered, there should be some chances for moisture in parts of the state that could definitely use it.



We will be looking at the possibility of some cooler weather with other chances for rain coming up at the start of next week (July 20/21)
