8/12 - 8:30pm - Rain Chances Increasing

I don't think I remember a time when August was this pleasant. We haven't seen 90 degrees in quite some time and rain has been holding off. We'll keep the nice temperatures, but it looks like rain will be entering the forecast Thursday and through the weekend. While this rain won't be an all day or all location event, be on the lookout for scattered storms. This activity should pick up and become more widespread early next week with an area of low pressure entering the vicinity. We could be dealing with some pretty wet weather for next week.

A couple tropical waves in the Atlantic Ocean are showing signs of development as they churn west toward our neck of the hemisphere. While they aren't considered terribly organized, the National Hurricane Center warns that the closer of the two could become a tropical depression, the precursor for a tropical storm, in just a couple days. This could be the beginning of peak hurricane season if activity continues to increase.
