Sunday Update

Posted Sunday 07/28/24 @ 10:00 AM — Except for the HRRR, the models are holding back the clouds at the shore until this evening. Sunny skies with haze from wildfire smoke here in the city. (The smoke levels here are not anywhere near the levels of last summer. )

The upper level low to our east will result in some instability showers/thundershowers late Monday afternoon. Increasing chances of showers and thunderstorms Tuesday and Wednesday due to an approaching warm front.
