Weather synopsis from the NWS for this week: “Unseasonably hot and humid in the short term with heat indices from 100 to 107 degrees for much of the area. A pair of cold fronts brings increasing rain chances Wednesday through through Friday. Locally heavy rains possible each day. Cooler than normal weekend behind the second cold front.”
The latest model runs continue to look promising for Wednesday through Saturday. I would not focus too much on precise rain totals this far out since much of the rain will be convective and will rely heavily on where the front ends up going stationary later in the week. As is almost always the case for April and May, there will be a chance for severe storms…hail an high winds will be the biggest threat. The good news is that rain is back in the forecast and will continue into the first week of May!
