Technical Discussion: Mother’s Day weekend includes a First Alert Weather Day
Isolated showers are dwindling and will continue to dissipate as we lose our daytime heating. The term “heating” being used loosely here, as temps are about 10 degrees below average! Keep a jacket nearby if you are heading out for any Friday evening plans. Tonight, clouds will increase. Temperatures are going to drop quickly at first, leveling off past midnight. It will be seasonably cool in the 40s. Showers are expected by daybreak.
The 2nd weekend of May is shaping up to be unsettled. Saturday is breezy and cool with temps running 10-15 degrees below normal. It’s also going to be a wet day, with periods of rain from the morning through sunset. It could be more substantial from late afternoon into the evening hours (steadier, perhaps heavier). While some rumbles of thunder can’t be ruled out, severe weather is not a concern. And, while we could pick up 0.5-1.0” of rain (locally higher amounts possible), we’re not anticipating any threat of flooding (as the rain falls over a 12-18 hour window of time). Because of the rain’s impact to outdoor plans, we’ve declared a First Alert Weather Day. Fortunately, Mother’s Day still looks like an improvement! While there could be an afternoon shower, most of the day is dry with temps peaking slightly above average, in the upper 60s and lower 70s (this is also our warmest day of the next 7). The chance for rain increases again at night.
