Synopsis: Good Monday morning! This very active pattern to the south and west continues this week as a continuous stream of energy moves west to east. As we go throughout the day today showers remain mainly west…it’s not really until Wednesday morning and afternoon where we see more widespread rainfall as a front swings east. The cooler than normal pattern will continue over the next week as well with widespread highs in the 70s and lower 80s…incredible for early August. All the details in the video below, if you have any questions please let us know…have a blessed day!
