Local View with festive Red, White and Blue theme
I am doing a 4 days forecast due to the upcoming Holiday Weekend, which is quite a large travel weekend for our local area, many people will be driving into the area up to cabins, and families and such due to the 3 day weekend.
Locally, we will have Dry and Sunny weather Friday and Saturday, Temperatures look to be on the quite warm side, mid to upper 80s, although this time it looks like it wont get as muggy as last warm spell. Sunday will be sunny and warm most of the day, but then there will be a risk of isolated thunderstorms, this isolated risk will continue into Monday, temperatures will cool off some for Memorial Day back into the mid 70s. It is too early to tell at this time if any severe weather is expected with Mondays activity, It will depend on how much moisture we have in place, and I currently don't have any moisture maps to look at, although I'd like to find some. Daily forecast below.
Friday, Sunny skies, and calm winds with very warm temperatures in the mid to upper 80s. Friday Night, Clear lows in the upper 50s.
Saturday, Sunny, Very warm Highs in the upper 80s, Some locations might get close to 90. Saturday Night, Clear lows near 60.
Sunday, Sunny at first, then some clouds moving in, a small chance at some isolated showers and thunderstorms highs in the mid 80s. Sunday Night, lingering showers and thunderstorms possible, lows in the mid 50s.
Memorial Day, a small chance of lingering showers or Thunderstorms, mainly before 10AM, skies clearing in the early afternoon. Highs in the mid 70s. Monday Night, Clear lows in the low 50s.
Looking Ahead.
Tuesday through Thursday looks pretty dry for the local area, Expect for a system which looks to bring rain passing just to our south Thursday, if this shifts north some we could be getting some rain. then Friday through Monday, there may be a small chance of thunderstorms, with an approaching Warm air mass. Tuesday June 8th, The models show an impressive amount of rain possible,along a warm boundary if this plays out, this will probably have to be watched for severe weather, the June 8th system might be the start of a more active period. more on this later.
have a great Memorial Day Weekend!

Both the NAM-WRF and GFS models have a dewpoint map, http://weather.cod.edu/forecast/ that's a pretty good site!
I like that link, Tim. What is the dewpoint map called on there though, couldn't find it very quickly.
I thought he was referring to what the models were showing for dewpoints in the future, I could be misunderstanding the both of you, lol idk? Click on the NAM-WRF model, then you wanna go to the 2m td or the 0-30 mb td maps, I look at both. Now, if he was referring to the current dewpoint map, then on that page go to analysis, surface contours, and then the current weather/dewpoints map. Hope that helps. And yes I agree Josh, this site is very useful!
Thanks Tim! and J, I was refering to a future dewpoint map, so it can help me read dewpoints when systems are nearby so It can help me with severe weather forecasting. It took me some time to find out how to use it, but I figured it out! This will come in very handy for my thanks again Tim!
