Tomorrow, isolated storms are likely to pop up over our area. Our temps will still be in the lower 90's with dewpoints around 65. There is a 5% chance of severe weather tomorrow, but mostly look for heavy rain and an isolated strong wind gust.
Monday is interesting, so I've upgraded it to a CODE ORANGE. There is a slight risk (15% chance) of severe storms over our area for Monday.
I think we may need to be put in a 30% area...and here's the reason why I think that:
We will have hot temperatures to the lower 90's and dewpoints in the upper 60's, much like Sunday but a little more humid. Our only problem will be the limited wind energy, but we will have to see.
The best threat from these storms would be damaging winds >58mph. The best time period would be late afternoon Monday through the evening and early night time hours.
Tuesday will have a lingering chance of showers/storms during the daytime hours, especially the morning. Highs will be in the upper 80's.
Wednesday will be sunny with lower dewpoints (near 60) and highs in the mid 80's.
Thursday-Friday will introduce a threat of storms again, as dewpoints rise into the mid 60's and highs rise to near 90. The best threat for storms would be Thursday afternoon-evening, lingering into Friday morning. I believe we could have a chance at severe weather Thursday evening, but I'm still not sure about the moisture values after Tuesday's front...
Next Saturday should be just fine...with highs in the mid 80's and dewpoints in the upper 50's!!!
So...day's to watch are Monday and Thursday...

Tropical Storm Christidal has developed off of the coast of North Carolina. The storm has only 45 mph winds, and will be more of a rain/heavy surf threat along the Virginia/North & South Carolina coastlines.

Just a couple stories to wrap this post up...
My friend Chris Wilkerson is heading to Louisville for the American Idol tryouts.
He was in a FOX 41 contest where the first step was to call in three "code" words (previously released) in the first few minutes of the calling. The 112 people who made it were then to sing against each other, all 112 of them, for a guaranteed audition in front of an American Idol producer. Chris Wilkerson beat all 111 others to win the automatic audition...
So a shout out for him...and a big congradulations!!!

The British Open Golf Tournament, after 3 rounds, has the oldest leader to ever lead in a major after 3 Rounds...
The famed Greg Norman, now 53, leads at +2 by two shots over Padraig Harrington and K.J. Choi (+4). He will play with Padraig Harrington in the final group tomorrow morning. Simon Wakefield is 3 back at +5, and Anthony Kim, Ben Curtis, Ross Fisher, and Alexander Noren are 5 back at +7.
TV coverage of the final round tomorrow will be at 8am ET on ABC (WHAS-11 in Louisville).
