Evening Weather

Current Satellite Imagery

Several areas of convective (storms) including the Plains, Texas, Louisiana, and Florida.

Radar Loops: 7:24 PM ET

A few severe storms in central Plains within a shield of cool rain. A strong cell moved through Liberal, Kansas.

More rain and storms moving out of the Gulf of Mexico into Louisiana and Mississippi.

Storms in Florida are slowly fizzling out with loss of daytime heating — and using up the CAPE.

Convective Outlook Through Thursday Morning | Slight Risk

The several slight risk locations have watch boxes.

Precipitable Water | Next 7.5 Days

Heavy moisture from the Gulf of Mexico (yellow — red) is beaten back by Canadian troughs — and then resumes northward expansion on a 3-day cycle as frontal systems progress through the Lower 48.

Moisture with Tropical Storm Alvin is pulled into the U.S. Southwest on the periphery of an upper-level low that dips southward off western Baja California.

The end of the loop is next Wednesday = more “summer like” humidity and heat within a more ridge-like upper-level pattern.
