Long, hot week - Slight storm chances

This is the part of summer that can be rough on some of us. Temperatures will climb to near 100 and it puts quite the strain on anyone working outside during the afternoon. Air conditioners only seem to turn off for a minute or two at a time, and without much rain, some of you will be watering like crazy to keep up with the heat.

Rain chances are very slim this week, but the first possible chance comes for the NW Tuesday evening. You'll be able to count on one hand how many storms pop up.

Tuesday Evening

Chances look a little better for the NW Wednesday evening. They will still be scattered, but a few areas will get cooled off with an early evening storm that might dump a quick, heavy downpour.

We should end up with less heat later in the week. I'll focus on that tomorrow and we will look at some rainfall numbers and see where we stand moving into the middle of July. In the meantime, take it easy and do your best to keep cool.
