Looks like the heat is building in the medium range. Will it hold or will the models back down once again? We're definitely riding the edge of the ridge...we start the work week out with some NW flow shortwaves and possibly a ridge runner or two nearby Mon/Tues...but the ridge does look to flex eastward for a couple/three days potentially before the NW flow comes in again with a front. We'll have to see if models pick up on any more ripples that would knock down the ridge a bit more than they show currently...been the trend all summer so far. It does seem like the summer pattern is maturing and allowing the heat to expand some though.

Back to watering. Grass is also back to a four day "I need mowed" cycle. UGH

Im trying to understand why the NWS has no POPs this week. It looks like an active NW flow pattern with severeal chances for storms.

Either you mow or there's no rain. Can't have both.

GFS has storms around nearly every day this week..."guess we'll see" Those storms last night missed MBY to the SW and NE...once again Tuesday AM looks like the best bet for storms with a complex riding down the river and then again Friday/Saturday along the sagging cool front.

C'mon storms in northern Missouri...keep moving southeast and don't fall apart. We could use some more rain before the heat gets here later this week.

Trees and crops are gonna take a big hit this coming week around here if we don't get any appreciable rain tomorrow into Tuesday. It's about as dry as I've ever seen it...yet the drought monitor doesn't even have us in the D0 category...laughable

Still sitting around an inch for the month.

Looks like August is going to be the hottest month of the Summer relative to normal with average to below average rain chances. Some signs of a couple week's long heat waves in there. near the beginning of the month and towards the middle of the month. Could see some shots of Autumn arriving around September however especially after Labor Day.

Start of August doesn’t look terrible currently. We will have a rough heat stretch to end July but I think August ends up very normal.

October is gonna be more fall like, but might get warm once or twice. November is full fall, but it might snow. Oh and water is still wet.

I imagine your response may be CAMs but could you elaborate further? NAMs...3km, 12km and 40km all show the overnight convection staying west of the river. I haven't looked at the HRRR or RAP yet.

Bastardi used to say there was a correlation between a -AAO during the S hemisphere winter and a -AO the following N hemisphere winter. If that's the case...batten down the hatches

Latest NAMs/CAMs have virtually no storms overnight anywhere now...and basically nothing for the next 4 days.
I sure hope that's wrong.
