The Big Picture
Happy Fathers' Day to all you dads! We've a day on tap that'll closely match yesterday, with things getting hotter and more humid from here as we get into the new work week. Storm opportunities will be scant today and tomorrow but will pick up as we get into Tuesday and Wednesday. From there, we'll cool off a little bit but it'll still be a warm end to the work week. Long range suggests we get back into more heat and humidity for the final weekend of June.
Today and Tomorrow
It's gorgeous start to a Sunday. Temperatures are largely in the 60s with a few 50s in the higher elevations and a few low 70s in the Capital District. Humidity is noticeable but not bad with dewpoints in the low 60s.
Today will be a carbon copy of yesterday with the exception being a lesser coverage of scattered showers and thunderstorms. The radar yesterday was dotted with 8-10 or so on the radar at its peak, whereas today we'll only have a few. So, for many of us, the dry days will continue.
It'll be another day of 80s and a few low 90s with a light south breeze and dewpoints in the low and middle 60s.
Mild and a bit muggy again tonight with lows in the 60s and low 70s.
Tomorrow will be a carbon copy of today, only a bit warmer and a bit more humid with a few more low 90s and a few widely scattered showers and thunderstorms. As it will be the 3rd consecutive day of 90s in Albany, it'll be our first heat wave of the year, and likely not the last.
Tuesday and Wednesday
Heat and humidity peak out on Tuesday, which will make for a rather oppressive day. We'll have a bit better coverage of showers and storms but again, they'll be scattered and many more folks won't see rain than those who will. Highs will top out well into the 80s with the warmest spots making a run at the mid 90s. With that humidity, heat index values will be close to 100 degrees.
After a warm night, we'll get back to hazy, hot and humid for Wednesday. As a weak cold front pushes through, it'll touch off a more organized afternoon of showers and storms. As of now, it does not look to be a huge deal but I'll be watching for signs of a more robust day of storms as we'll still have plenty of humidity to tap into.
Thursday and Beyond
Thursday won't be quite as hot but it'll still be pretty muggy. We'll have a scattering of afternoon storms with highs holding in the 80s. Friday will settle in the upper 70s to the middle 80s with less humidity.
The weekend has many questions with it but the possibility exists for another batch of heat and humidity to move in and hang out for another spell.
