After some showers Tuesday night..warm week followed by heat for the weekend?..how long though?

Everybody has the holiday weekend on their minds..we all would like typical 4th weather..sunny and hot..well this morning Euro agrees..the weekend will be Sunny hoy and humid..with 90's..Sunday 0z 850 temps
                                                                       
                                                                    

and continues into the 4th


However GFS this morning totally different..I mean totally..big Upper low in eastern Canada

However GFS does heat things up Saturday into part of Sunday..but it is very brief


With the Euro model it becomes an old fashioned heatwave..hot thru day 10!

Major Heat ridge to develop in the Plains early next week..doesn't make it east as a cold front comes thru by midweek..ridge moves east on July 4th weekend..hot and humid,but right now it looks brief

After a nice weekend with some sun and seasonable temps..the Plains will be sizzlin next week with temps over the century mark in many spots..for us..looks like a weakness will move over the ridge as a cold front and stop the heat from advancing with showers and storms..shown here in the 500 heights GFS map 114 hr

Then the heat makes a comeback..and some of it spreads east for the July 4th weekend..Saturday and Sunday look hot and humid temps in the 90's..here's Euro 850 temps for Sunday morning

                                                                            
Front comes thru on the 4th and the 90's are bye bye...right now heatwave seems brief

Weekend looks nice dry and seasonable,,MAJOR HEAT RIDGE DEVELOPS IN PLAINS EARLY NEXT WEEK..does it reach us?

After some thunderstorms late today, some which may be severe,cold front comes thru..beautiful summer weekend with sunshine low humidity and temps in the 80's both days..now for next week..torrid heat will develop in the plains and move to the midwest by the middle of next week..over 100 degrees temps for this area..ok where does it go?..it will stay there for a while..GFS does push a cold front thru on Tuesday night..with showers and storms  120 hr surface

Hot weather finally makes it here..not the brunt..but temps in the 90's with increasing humidity for the 4th of July weekend as shown here in the 8 day Euro

                                                                                      

by next Monday another front could approach to keep the brutal heat away 10 day euro 850 temps


                                                                       

GFS by July 4th want to develop a ring of fire over the central states..with us on the eastern boundry

SLOW cold front inches it's way across the country..warm and humid flow..weekend looks nice..possible heatwave for the 4th of July?




At this time of year sometimes a cold front could take a week to travel 500 miles..and that's sort of what we are dealing with this week..On the warm side of the front, it's gonna be warm,humid and tropical with showers and thunderstorms that could pop up any time..some even severe..most likely time would be late afternoon or early evening..expect sunhine too..FINALLY front comes thru late Friday as 72 hr GFS shows

                                                                            image of MSLP 1000 - 500mb

Weekend for now looks dry and seasonable..there could be a hit or miss shower..96 hr GFS

                                                                                           image of MSLP 1000 - 500mb

And now the big question as we head into July..one thing is certain...BIG HEAT RIDGE will develop in the plains and midwest..temps nearing or getting over 100..the heat will expand..will it get this far..well the 10 day Euro says it's getting close  850 temps..check out the heat in the midwest!

                                                                                               

GFS ensembles for the 4th say yea..the heat could make it by the 4th into the east..however a few members are now saying hold off!

Summer comes in warm and humid..SLOW moving cold front approaches all week with showers and boomers..next weekend looks dry..conflicting signals for eary July

 Summer rolls in tomorrow in typical summer fashion with very warm and humid weather..showers and thunderstorms will be around late in the day..as a matter of fact,get used to it for the rest of the week..Slow moving cold front will produce showers at any time,however there will also be sunny periods as well..by Friday night front finally rolls thru with showers and Thunderstorms as shown in 128 hour GFS for Friday night

                                                                      image of MSLP 1000 - 500mb
next weekend looks dry most of the time with cooler than normal temps..day 10 Euro has below normal temps for the last day in June,here's the 850 temps

                                                                                    
Some model disagreement for early July..as GFS ensembles show a warm pattern by July 4th
