Monsoon 2018 is off to a record start! .17″ of rain before midnight broke the previous rainfall record of June 15th of .15″. Today looks like another record rainfall kind of day as an upper level low interacts with record to near record moisture levels for mid June. Look for showers and storms with locally heavy rainfall. As I type this at 6:15 a.m. there is a large area of moderate rain heading into the Metro! I just heard my first thunder of the season! Flash flooding may be a concern with this area of rain and with any storms we may see later, so please enjoy Monsoon 2018 responsibly.

A chance for storms continuing this evening with storms ending late tonight as the low clears the area. Tonight’s low in the mid 60s.

Sunshine returns tomorrow and we start to dry out and warm up. Low 90s tomorrow. Upper 90s Monday and Tuesday. Near 100ish Wednesday. 102 Thursday. 104 Friday. VIVA MONSOON 2018!
