Quiet in the Tropics
Closing out the month of June, the first meteorological month of summer and the start of the hurricane season, things are pretty quiet around most of the country. However, the Sunshine State continues to be bathed in showers and thunderstorms. Heavy rain once again soaks the northeast US.
Once again the Twin Cities will come up short in the precipitation department this month. The latest drought update will be released on Wednesday. During the growing season we would like to receive about an inch of moisture a week. We are woefully short of that expectation.
Here is the latest from the Tropical Storm Prediction Center.
More seasonal temperatures are seen for the 4th of July weekend. Bouts of widespread thunderstorms look unlikely at this time.
