There is a similar forecast for Tuesday and Wednesday with heat and humidity helping to fuel numerous thunderstorms each afternoon. These will likely impact the afternoon and evening commutes for many.
Most of the rain will benefit our area since we are in a moderate drought. However, areas of persistent heavy rain could produce localized flooding this week.
Temperatures will cool down this week thanks to clouds and rain, but it’s still hot and humid.

As for the tropics, Hurricane Beryl is making landfall in Texas as a Category 1 hurricane with winds of 80 mph. Matagorda City, Texas, recorded wind gusts of 86 mph.
It’s the first hurricane to make landfall in the U.S. of the 2024 Hurricane Season and will surge plenty of tropical moisture through the central part of the country, but it’ll stay far away from our area.
There are no other areas of concern.
