Severe Threat For Tomorrow and the Weekend

Storms This Weekend, I Discuss the Severe Threat

Storms This Weekend, I Discuss the Severe Threat

There is yet again another storm system out west that has its eyes set on N Georgia..... right in time for the weekend! But, the big question I know a lot of you are asking is will there be any severe weather.....

Severe Threat For Tomorrow and the Weekend

There is another upper air disturbance out west that is going to move over the state starting tomorrow and lasting through Saturday. Here is the good news, the upper energy will start to go into an upper level ridge once it starts getting closer to us, this ridge is out in the Atlantic and is what has lead to very slow moving systems over the US the last week. Take a look below and you will see what I am talking about, it has just blocked things up across the US... So as the upper level energy heads in this direction it essentially starts to break up, and that is what is going to happen over the weekend.

Atlanta Weather | A Noisy Pest Set To Return

Atlanta Weather | A Noisy Pest Set To Return

 

Get ready, they are set to return, and soon! I am talking about that noisy, late spring, summertime pest the cicadas.

Tthe return of the 17-year cicadas will cover areas from Georgia to Connecticut, and the air will hum with their mating buzz. These bugs with their black bodies, striking red eyes, and orange wing veins have a rather unique lifespan. The periodical cicadas returning this year, known as the Magicicada Brood II, have been living   underground for the past 17 years.

It Could Be a Cool Summer, CPC Disagrees.....

It Could Be a Cool Summer, CPC Disagrees.....

What you are seeing above is the CPC "official forecast" for the period from June - August and notice again how they are saying it is going to be above normal for temps for the summer..... This is the exact same area that they said that the late winter and all of spring would be below normal for rain, and above normal for temps..... and we were neither. Now I am not one to go bashing on the CPC, but I will say this.....

Atlanta Weather | Thursday Forecast

Tomorrow will be one of the nicest days we have seen in a long time as temps will be heading up into the lower 80's thanks to a nice westerly breezy and the upper level low finally moving out towards the NE. Just take a look below and you will see that almost all of the metro area will be in the lower 80's for highs tomorrow!
