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

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

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!
