Flash Flood Prediction Program
-------------------------
Surprise, its Dry and Warm again.
Highs today will be in the upper 80s to low 90s, with a chance of
tying the record high of 92°F set back in 1892. Precipitable water
values are lower than yesterday, 0.50” to 0.60”, and lower dew
points with mid to upper 30s. These values should suggest again that
Message level rainfall should be possible, but due to the upper
atmosphere being very dry and the high pressure system over the
Intermountain West will limit any storms/precipitation from
developing. Lows tonight will drop the upper 50s to low 60s in the
plains and mid to upper 50s for the foothills.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: No rainfall is expected within
the District today.
A LOOK AHEAD: Not much is in the cards for change precipitation wise
for the next several days, the only event in sight is a cold front
Tuesday cooling the afternoon temperatures to just above normal
values, around the upper 70s to low 80s. Wednesday may see another
record high for The District and a tying of the record for the latest
90° day for the year. Fall-like conditions should continue to settle
in the coming weeks.
