Time: 925 AM Mon July 29, 2024 Forecaster: Tim Tonge ------------------------- Heavy Precipitation Outlook Flash Flood Prediction Program ------------------------- Hot and dry across District A ridge of high pressure over the south-central US will inch into Colorado today, with west-southwest flow aloft bringing hot, dry desert air into the region. Some seasonal convection over the high country far outside of the District is possible, however the District itself will remain dry. Temperatures will reach the mid 90s with a slight breeze. Precipitable water (PWAT) values around 0.30" and dewpoints below 20°F support one of the drier days of the year. Temps tonight will drop into the low 60s as dry conditions continue. STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: Rainfall is not expected in the District today. A LOOK AHEAD: This hot and dry trend will persist throughout at least tomorrow, and is anticipated to remain unchanged Wednesday as well. Temps tomorrow have potential to reach triple digits. Low-level moisture upticks Thursday, returning the chances of storms in and around the District. MONITOR NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FOR SEVERE WEATHER STATEMENTS.
