STORMS ARE BEGINNING TO WIND DOWN EARLY THIS MORNING. THERE COULD
STILL BE A GUST TO 65 MPH AND HEAVY RAIN CAUSING ISOLATED FLOODING,
MAINLY EAST OF HIGHWAY 83. STORMS SHOULD BE CLEAR OF THE AREA BY 6AM
CT.
ONCE THE STORMS CLEAR, A COOLER DAY IS FORECAST AS THE UPPER TROUGH
FINISHES SWINGING THROUGH THE PLAINS AND ON THE BACK SIDE OF THE
COLD FRONT. HIGHS ARE CURRENTLY FORECAST TO BE IN THE 80S UNDERNEATH
PARTLY CLOUD SKIES. WINDS SHOULD REMAIN FROM THE NORTH AROUND 10 TO
15 MPH WITH GUSTS TO 25 MPH.
TONIGHT, SKIES ARE FORECAST TO REMAIN PARTLY CLOUDY WITH WINDS
LIGHTENING AND SHIFTING TO OUT OF THE SOUTH AS THE PRESSURE GRADIENT

LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/

THROUGH WEDNESDAY THE FORECAST LOOKS DRY FOR THE MOST PART. THE
RIDGE OVER THE GREAT BASIN ON MONDAY SHIFTS EAST TO THE CENTRAL
PLAINS. THIS WILL ROUTE STORM ACTIVITY NORTH OF THE FORECAST AREA.
DURING THE LATTER HALF OF THE WEEK THE RIDGE MAY SHIFT EAST OF THE
FORECAST AREA. IF THIS HAPPENS, THAT WOULD ALLOW UPPER LEVEL SHORT
WAVE TROUGHS TO MOVE OVER THE FORECAST AREA. MODELS SHOW ONE SUCH
SHORT WAVE TROUGH MOVING THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT, WHICH WILL HAVE A
LARGE IMPACT ON INDEPENDENCE DAY ACTIVITIES. ADDITIONAL ROUNDS OF
STORM ACTIVITY COULD HAPPEN EACH EVENING THROUGH THE WEEKEND.
