21 MAY 2010 EXTENDED FORECAST
FINALLY SOME GOOD NEWS - SUMMER WILL ARRIVED.............
THE SYSTEM THAT WENT THRU US LAST EVENING HAS PUSHED INTO ILLINOIS, FORCING PRECIP EAST WITH IT. RAINFALL AMOUNTS WERE GENERALLY LESS THAN 1/4 INCH AROUND THE AREA - THE ONLY EXCEPTION WAS 1/2 TO 3/4 INCH IN SOUTHERN AND SE COUNTIES...........
REST OF TODAY - MOSTLY CLOUDY - THEN PARTLY CLOUDY AFTER SUNSET.....TEMP 65
SATURDAY AND SUNDAY 22ND/23RD - PARTLY CLOUDY THRU THE WEEKEND - WINDS SOUTHERLY AND GUSTY BY SATURDAY AFTERNOON - TEMPS 84/90
MONDAY THRU FRIDAY 24TH/28TH - STRONG HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD OVER THE SOUTHEAST U.S. AS LOW PRESSURE MOVES NW TO SE OVER THE WESTERN HALF OF THE COUNTRY (THIS WEATHER REGIME USUALLY WILL KEEP US HIGH AND DRY). A FRONT WILL FORM FROM THE DAKOTAS, DOWN THRU EASTERN NEBRASKA, AND SOUTH THRU CENTRAL KANSAS.....THE HIGH PRESSURE WILL HALT ANY EASTWARD MOVEMENT OF THE FRONT - STALLING IT OVER EXTREME WESTERN IOWA THRU THE PERIOD....
THE RESULT FOR US WILL BE STRONG SOUTHERLY FLOW (GUSTY SOUTH WINDS THRU THE DAYS, TAPERING OFF AT NIGHT), ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES/FAIRLY HUMID (TEMPS MID TO HIGH 80'S), PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES, AND VERY ISOLATED AFTERNOON SHOWERS - NONE OF WHICH WILL RESULT AS A "SHOWSTOPPER"....
THE BEST SHOT AT ANY PRECIP WILL BE IN THE TUESDAY/WEDNESDAY TIMEFRAME AS THE SKIES GO MOSTLY CLOUDY DURING THE AFERNOONS RESULTING IN SOME ISOLATED SHOWERS - PRECIP TOTALS VERY LOW.......
