Beneficial Rain For Some

ALL RIGHT, KEVIN ROBINSON JOINING US NOW. AND I’M GLAD YOU COULD EDUCATE US BECAUSE DRIVING AROUND TODAY KIND OF SEEMED OVER CASTE. THE SON OF A PIG THROUGH I HAD NO IDEA IT WAS THIS SMOKE. A LOT OF IT FROM CANADA. RIGHT. IT IS IT’S THIS IS A LOT OF THIS IS A RESULT OF THE WILDFIRES IN QUEBEC RIGHT NOW. BUT IT’S NOT JUST IN QUEBEC. THIS SMOKE SPECIFICALLY IS COMING FROM THERE. BUT IT’S NOVA SCOTIA. IT’S IN WESTERN CANADA. I MEAN, THEY’VE GOT SOME SERIOUS ISSUES ACROSS THE BORDER IN CANADA RIGHT NOW WITH SOME SERIOUS WILDFIRES OUT THERE. AND I’LL SHOW YOU THAT SMOKE EXACTLY HOW IT’S MOVING IN HERE. IN FACT, IF YOU LOOK THERE ON THE CITY CAM TONIGHT, YOU CAN KIND OF SEE SOME OF THAT SMOKE WHILE THE MAJORITY OF IT IS ALOFT, SOME OF IT IS MANAGING TO WORK ITS WAY DOWN TOWARDS THE SURFACE. HENCE, WE ARE SEEING A SLIGHT REDUCTION IN VISIBILITY. I’LL SHOW IT TO YOU HERE IN JUST A MOMENT. LET’S START FIRST, THOUGH, WITH WHAT TO EXPECT. YES, I THINK GOING INTO TOMORROW, MORE SMOKY SKIES. I DON’T SEE ANY REAL IMPROVEMENT. BENEFICIAL RAIN. YES. I DO THINK THAT PARTS OF THE VIEWING AREA WILL LOCK UP AND END UP WITH SOME BENEFICIAL RAINFALL. IT LOOKS LIKE TOMORROW NIGHT INTO EARLY ON WEDNESDAY. THEN THIS WILL BE FOLLOWED BY YET MORE COOLER AIR FOR THE SECOND HALF OF THE WEEK I’VE BEEN TELLING YOU. I DON’T THINK WE’RE STAYING LOCKED. A HOT AND DRY WEATHER PATTERN. SO IF YOU’RE WORRIED ABOUT IT, YOU KNOW, A PARTICULARLY HOT AND DRY SUMMER. I DON’T THINK THAT’S THE CASE JUST YET FOR US. ALL RIGHT. LET’S TALK ABOUT THESE VISIBILITY OUTSIDE RIGHT NOW. NOTICE FOR THE MOST PART, VISIBILITIES ABOVE FIVE MILES. RIGHT. SO WHILE THERE IS SOME REDUCTION IN THE VISIBILITY INVISIBILITY, MOST OF THE SMOKE IS STILL ALOFT IN OUR ATMOSPHERE. SOME OF IT HAS MANAGED TO WORK ITS WAY DOWN. IT’S NOT TO THE POINT YET WHERE IT’S PARTICULAR HAZARDOUS. NOW, HERE’S WHAT’S HAPPENING. HIGH PRESSURE IS IN CHARGE OF OUR WEATHER, RIGHT? NOTICE WE HAD SOME HIGH CLOUDS GO THROUGH EARLIER TODAY. NOTICE EVERYTHING’S DRIFTING FROM NORTH TO SOUTH. WELL, SOME OF THE SMOKE IS ALSO TRAPPED UP IN THAT. AND LET ME SHOW YOU THIS HERE. BASICALLY WHERE YOU SEE THIS RED AND ORANGE, THIS IS ALL SMOKE. AND LOOK WHERE IT’S EMANATING FROM. ALL OF IT’S COMING OUT OF EASTERN CANADA. NOW, I DO EXPECT SOME IMPROVEMENTS TOMORROW NIGHT AND THEN INTO THE DAY ON WEDNESDAY. NOTICE HOW THAT SMOKE FINALLY GETS OUT OF HERE AS WE SEE THE WIND FLOW PATTERN CLEARING US UP BRIEFLY. LET’S SEE HOW LONG IT STAYS CLEAR. THOSE WILDFIRES KEEP GOING UP THERE. THAT SMOKE COULD ALWAYS COME BACK. BUT I DO THINK WE SEE A LITTLE IMPROVEMENT HEADING TOWARDS MIDWEEK, NOT ONLY BECAUSE OF THE CHANGE IN WIND DIRECTION, BUT A COOL FRONT IS GOING TO COME THROUGH HERE AND THAT WILL BRING IN THE CHANCE FOR SOME RAIN TOMORROW NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY MORNING. IN FACT, I BUMPED UP THE IMPACT WEDNESDAY MORNING BECAUSE I’M A LITTLE MORE CONFIDENT THAT SOME OF US COULD PICK UP ON AT LEAST MORE BENEFICIAL RAIN. AND BY BENEFICIAL, I’M TALKING ABOUT MAYBE A QUARTER TO A HALF AN INCH. THAT’S MORE THAN WE’VE SEEN IN WEEKS AROUND HERE. SO HERE’S FUTURE CASTS. TOMORROW’S A BEAUTIFUL DAY. IT WILL BE SMOKY AND HAZY LIKE IT WAS TODAY, BUT DRY RIGHT ONCE THE SUN GOES DOWN, SHOWER CHANCES WILL BEGIN TO GO UP. NOTICE AS WE GO INTO TOMORROW NIGHT AND THEN BASICALLY AS WE WORK OUR WAY INTO WEDNESDAY MORNING FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE FROM THE METRO AND THEN SOUTHWEST THROUGH INDIANA INTO PARTS OF NORTHERN KENTUCKY, I DO THINK THERE COULD AGAIN BE BENEFICIAL FOR YOU BEFORE WE DRY OUT. HEADING INTO WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, THE FARTHER NORTH EAST OF THE RIVER YOU GO, I THINK YOU’RE GOING TO GET SHORT CHANGED ON THE OVERALL AMOUNT OF RAINFALL. IT IS COMFORTABLE OUTSIDE TONIGHT, 66 RIGHT NOW. LOOK AT THE DEW POINT AND THE HUMIDITY. NICE NIGHT OUT THERE. IN FACT, ONCE YOU GET AWAY FROM THE URBAN HEAT ISLAND, YOU’RE ACTUALLY DOWN INTO THE 50. ACROSS MUCH OF SOUTHEAST INDIANA. AND THEN AT 62 IN PEEBLES, 65 CURRENTLY IN MAYSVILLE. HERE’S YOUR 12 HOUR FORECAST, WE’LL DIP DOWN INTO THE MID FIFTIES BEFORE MORNING AND THEN SUNSHINE POPS OUT AND WE’LL START TO CLIMB BACK INTO THE EIGHTIES TOMORROW. SO MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES, ALTHOUGH IT DOESN’T SEEM THAT WAY WITH IT BEING HAZY TONIGHT. 56. TOMORROW’S A NICE DAY, AT LEAST DURING THE DAY. AND THEN WE’LL SEE THE RAIN CHANCES GO UP AFTER DARK. AND HERE’S YOUR DAY PLANNER. SHOULD BE A BEAUTIFUL TUESDAY AROUND THE AREA. YOUR SEVEN DAY FORECAST IS OUT LIKE THIS. WE’VE GOT THE SHOWERS IN HERE TOMORROW NIGHT. SOME RAIN WILL LINGER INTO EARLY WEDNESDAY. SO I PROBABLY COULD HAVE THROWN SOME RAINDROPS ON THERE FROM WEDNESDAY MORNING AS WELL. BUT THEN IT ACTUALLY GETS A LITTLE COOL HEADING INTO WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND THURSDAY NIGHT. LOW FIFTIES IN THE CITY MEANS THAT IN THE BURBS TEMPERATURES COULD DIP INTO THE FORTIES AT NIGHT. SO IT’S A LITTLE COOL FOR THIS TIME OF THE YEAR WITH ANOTHER RAIN CHANCE LATE IN THE WEEKEND. ON SUNDAY. KEVIN THANK YOU, J
