DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 141 AM CDT SAT AUG 1 2026
WIDESPREAD LIGHT RAIN WILL CONTINUE EARLY THIS MORNING AS A LOW
PRESSURE SYSTEM OVER NORTHERN ILLINOIS TRACKS THROUGH THE NORTHERN
OHIO VALLEY. THIS RAIN WILL END FROM WEST TO EAST THROUGHOUT THE
MORNING AS THE LOW PULLS AWAY FROM THE REGION. A FEW RUMBLES OF
THUNDER CANNOT BE RULED OUT, AS GLM AND LIGHTNING DATA INDICATE A
FEW FLASHES AT VARIOUS TIMES. ADDITIONAL SHOWERS AND A FEW
THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE THIS AFTERNOON FROM DAYTIME HEATING
AS SOME MODEST INSTABILITY BUILDS ACROSS THE REGION WITH A FEW
HUNDRED J/KG OF SBCAPE. HIGHS TODAY WILL GENERALLY RANGE FROM THE
MIDDLE 70S TO AROUND 80 UNDER CLOUD COVER AND PERSISTENT
NORTHEAST WINDS.
SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD INTO THE UPPER GREAT LAKES
TONIGHT AND REMAIN DOMINANT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT. THIS WILL YIELD
CLEAR TO PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES, LIGHT WINDS, AND PLEASANT MID-
SUMMER CONDITIONS. HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL STEADILY WARM FROM THE
MID AND UPPER 70S ON SUNDAY TO THE UPPER 70S TO LOWER 80S ON
MONDAY UNDER AMPLE SUNSHINE.
THE NEXT NOTABLE WEATHER SYSTEM ARRIVES TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY AS
AN UPPER-LEVEL SHORTWAVE TROUGH AND ASSOCIATED SURFACE COLD FRONT
PUSH EAST ACROSS THE NORTHERN PLAINS INTO THE UPPER MIDWEST.
MOISTURE RETURN AHEAD OF THE BOUNDARY WILL PUSH DEW POINTS BACK
INTO THE 60S, GENERATING MUCAPE OF 500-1000 J/KG AND DEEP-LAYER
SHEAR OF 25-30 KNOTS. THIS ENVIRONMENT WILL BRING SCATTERED
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS FROM TUESDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH
WEDNESDAY MORNING. WHILE SEVERE WEATHER RISK REMAINS LOW AT THIS
TIME DUE TO MODEST INSTABILITY, PARALLEL FLOW ALOFT RELATIVE TO
THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY COULD RESULT IN LOCALIZED TRAINING OF SHOWER
ACTIVITY. LIGHTER PRECIPITATION CHANCES LINGER INTO THURSDAY AS
COOLER, NEAR-NORMAL AIR SETTLES BACK OVER THE REGION WITH HIGHS
RETURNING TO THE UPPER 70S AND LOWER 80S.
