That should help to trigger off more widespread showers and thunderstorms across the area. The front is expected to stall out around the coast sometime Tuesday, which will help to fire off more showers and thunderstorms for a few days next week, with much-needed rain!
10-day Forecast:
A cold front will completely change our weather pattern for the early part of next week. Along with a possible tropical low scraping along the Gulf coast, it will enhance our rain chances as well for some much needed rainfall! We’ll start the month of July with seasonable summer temperatures, no triple digits for now.
Tracking the Tropics:
The tropics are starting to wake up as they generally do this time of summer. There is an 80% chance for tropical development in the next five days in the eastern Atlantic. The long-range models have this moving almost directly east to west headed toward Central America.
Closer to home, we’re watching an area in the northern Gulf where thunderstorms will have a 20% chance of developing into something tropical. The “hot zone” for it has shifted further south so that if anything were to form, it appears it may be closer to Brownsville or Corpus Christi.
