The last seven days have provided much variety. Overall, last week featured considerable sunshine and afternoon temperatures of 24 to 35º C (75 to 95º F). Most days featured light winds, with exceptions last Friday and Saturday where many locations were buffeted by moderate winds and strong gusts. Thunderstorms were frequent in the region, occasionally with torrential downpours to cool everything off.

The coolest day this week has probably already occurred! Monday was cloudy with showers and some thunderstorms. Temperatures barely reached 21º C (70º F). The coming days should feature a return of warm temperatures occasionally reaching the high 80s (30º C) later in the week. Sun will prevail most days, but occasional showers are possible in the evenings as the heat of the day adds to the humidity.

The outlook for the rest of July and into August is a continuation of warmer than seasonal temperatures.
