Mid-August Monsoons


Recap: Aug 10 to 16.
Our weather has warmed back up but we have been having a fair bit of rain over the past week. Wednesday evening there was torrential rain along with some thunder and lightning. The temps started to rise into or above the normal range on Thursday and it has been quite humid.
There doesn’t appear to be any big storms on the way in the near future and some dryer weather should be in our area by the first of next week. There is a possibility of showers for mid-week.
TS Fay, currently in the Caribbean, is not expected to have any effect here. It is, however, expected to increase to hurricane strength before making landfall in western Florida on Tuesday.

Note: The temps shown in the forecast block in this blog are reported from the nearest local weather station located at Western Head which is very near the ocean. The temps there are quite different than here usually.
