MM’s Wx Concerns
If current forecast trends verify, we could be in for some very gusty winds by Sunday evening. Southerly winds will increase ahead of our next storm system. As Sunday progresses, those southerly winds will increase. By Sunday night, those winds could hit speeds of 35-40 mph. Please note that our ground is very wet from recent rains and shallow-rooted trees may fall if winds gets this gusty. Prepare for possible power outages, just in case that happens. Gusty winds will continue into the day on Monday.
By Monday, a strong cold front will make its way across our area. There is the risk for strong to severe thunderstorms. If the front can get here earlier in the day, the atmosphere will be cooler and more stable. If the front comes through in the afternoon, warmer temps would increase our severe storm chances. I’ll keep an eye on it!
