Not much change since yesterday except that we will be keeping an eye on a tropical wave coming off the coast of Africa this week. This system now has a 50% chance of becoming a “tropical something” in the next week. Early models are swinging this potential storm to the NW as it approaches the US, but this far out, anything is still possible.

An inverted trough will kick up pm popper odds for Monday and Tuesday, but most of the rain will stay along the coast and coastal plains. Models continue to show better odds for rain towards the end of the month, but without something tropical, I don’t see a major rain producer as of today.
