Next chase?


The model forecasts for the upcoming week don't hold a lot of promise for good chasing weather. Tuesday evening may provide some shower activity but that appears to be headed just north of us. Later in the week another cold air damming situation seems to be setting up with high pressure off the coast of New England pumping (relatively) cool air down our way. The first indications of active weather seems to be Saturday when the tail end of a cold front may pass through some warm moist air over us and trigger storms. However, forecasts further out than 72 hours are very subject to change and even the local Sterling NWS office forecast discussion was hedging its bets for the latter part of the week. Guess we'll have to wait and see (again!).

Meanwhile the photo above is another edited version of one taken of the June 20th funnel here in south Stafford county.
