Humidity and rain in the forecast ahead of the Perseid meteor showers

STAY ELEVATED FOR SEVERAL DAYS TO COME. SO WE’RE GOING TO HAVE TO GET WITH IT THE NEXT FEW DAYS WITH THIS HUMIDITY AND OF COURSE THE CHANCE FOR RAIN MOVING IN THIS AFTERNOON. YOU’LL SEE HERE ON OUR FUTURE CAST MODEL, 1 OR 2 SHOWERS OR EVEN AN ISOLATED THUNDERSTORM. TRY TO BUBBLE UP DURING THE PEAK HEATING OF THE DAY, BUT IT REALLY DOESN’T LOOK LIKE IT’S A SIGNIFICANT RAIN EVENT FOR US. MOST AREAS EXPECTED TO STAY DRY, BUT DON’T BE SURPRISED IF YOU GET CAUGHT UNDER ONE OF THOSE BRIEF SHOWERS AS WE MOVE THROUGH THIS EVENING, ESPECIALLY OVERNIGHT, WE STOP HERE AT 2 A.M. AND THAT’S BECAUSE BETWEEN MIDNIGHT AND TWO WILL BE THE PRIME TIME TO CHECK OUT THE PERSEID METEOR SHOWER. HOWEVER, A NEARLY FULL MOON AND MAYBE EVEN SOME CLOUDS COULD IMPACT OUR VIEWING FOR THIS METEOR SHOWER. BUT HOPEFULLY WE CAN LET THE CLOUDS HOLD OFF JUST A LITTLE BIT. FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO WANT TO BE OUT AND ABOUT LATE THIS EVENING TO SEE THAT, AND IF YOU HAPPEN TO DO HAPPEN TO SEE THE METEOR SHOWER AND YOU SNAP SOME PHOTOS OR GET SOME VIDEO, MAKE SURE TO SEND US SOME OF THAT FOR OUR VIEWING, OF COURSE, AND SO WE CAN SHARE IT ON AIR NEXT THE NEXT MORNING. SO BE GREAT TO SEE THOSE. ALL RIGHT WEDNESDAY MORNING ON FUTURECAST. WHILE IT DOES PICK UP ON SOME SPRINKLES OUT THERE, CERTAINLY POSSIBLE, BUT I THINK IT WILL BE MOSTLY CLOUDY IF NOT OVERCAST TO START WEDNESDAY, AND THEN SHOWERS AND A FEW THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE TRIGGERED BY A FRONT THAT COMES THROUGH DURING THE AFTERNOON. SO AROUND 4:00, 5:00, MAYBE EVEN DURING THE HEART OF RUSH HOUR, WE COULD BE DEALING WITH SOME HEAVY DOWNPOURS IN SOME COMMUNITIES. AND THEN THAT KIND OF MOVES ON OUT OF HERE BEFORE WE SEE THINGS QUIET DOWN AROUND OUR AREA. BY THE WAY. OF COURSE, THOSE ARE UP FOR A THREE GAME SERIES THIS WEEK. 635 PITCH FIRST PITCH TONIGHT. PARTLY CLOUDY SKY, BUT A WARM NIGHT AHEAD, 87 DEGREES. AND THEN BY 9.35 WE’RE GOING TO BE IN THE UPPER 80S. SO CERTAINLY GOING TO BE WARM FOR THE GAME. BUT NOT UNBEARABLE. NOT SOMETHING WE HAVEN’T EXPERIENCED SO FAR AT LEAST. WE’VE PRETTY MUCH PASSED THE PEAK OF WHERE WE TYPICALLY SEE OUR GREATEST HEAT HERE TODAY. SUN AND CLOUDS, ISOLATED SHOWER OR STORM WITH A HIGH OF 90 DEGREES. AND THEN TONIGHT WE’RE GOING TO DROP DOWN TO ABOUT 74. REAL QUICK CHECK ON THE TROPICS. TROPICAL STORM ERIN FORMED YESTERDAY AND THAT IS EXPECTED TO BECOME A CATEGORY THREE STORM WITHIN THE NEXT FEW DAYS. BUT SO FAR, RIGHT NOW, STILL WAY TOO EARLY TO TALK ABOUT IMPACTS, IF ANY, ACROSS THE EASTERN SEABOARD. BUT WE’LL KEEP A VERY CLOSE EYE ON IT FOR YOU AND LET YOU KNOW IF THOSE UPDATES CHANGE. SEVEN DAY FORECAST 90 IS EX
