We’ll have temperatures close to the typical high for the early July- upper 80’s. The difference will be the low humidity. Instead of dewpoints in the upper 60’s like you would expect the dewpoint will rest comfortably in the low 50’s. Very dry air for summer. Of course it won’t last; we’ll have dewpoints back into the upper 60’s by Thursday. Sunny skies today. In fact the rain chances don’t really show up again until… wait for it… this weekend. Storms chances on Friday as a cold front moves in; it looks like that front lingers just to our south on Saturday and moves back over us on Sunday.

1979 - It snowed almost half a foot (5.8 inches) at Stampede Pass WA, a July record. (The Weather Channel)
1987 - Lake Charles LA was drenched with a month’s worth of rain during the early morning. More than five inches of rain soaked the city, including 2.68 inches in one hour. A thunderstorm in the southern Yakima Valley of Washington State produced high winds which downed trees up to six feet in diameter. (Storm Data) (The National Weather Summary)
1988 - Twenty-six cities in the north central and northeastern U.S. reported record low temperatures for the date. Lows of 48 degrees at Providence RI, 48 degrees at Roanoke VA, 49 degrees at Stratford CT, and 48 degrees at Wilmington, DE, were records for the month of July. Boston MA equalled their record for July with a low of 50 degrees. Five inches of snow whitened Mount Washington NH. (The National Weather Summary)
1989 - Showers and thunderstorms associated with the low pressure system which was once Tropical Storm Allison continued to drench parts of Mississippi, Louisiana and eastern Texas. Late night thunderstorms produced 12.58 inches of rain at Biloxi, MS, in six hours, and 10.73 inches at Gulfport MS. Flooding in Mississippi over the first six days of the month caused 55 million dollars damage. (The National Weather Summary) (Storm Data)
This forecast was posted at 3:06 AM.. it amazes me the hours you meteorologists have to work!

I was looking this morning at some of the old weathermen who use to work here and Kevin Skarupa works in New Hampshire now and he says that the worst thing about his job, is hearing the alarm clock wake him up at 1 a.m. About the same time Jeff gets up. But since it’s my dream to become a braodcasting meteorologist…I’d love it!
Like Jeff said, “It’s a lifestyle; not a shift.”
I’m surprised no one has said this yet…but WeatherChaser, you need to get some more recent data for your history entries there.
I hope we get more rain this weekend! I wouldn’t mind some natural fireworks for 4th of July myself!
Just a note to cammmmm if you want to change your account name that appears above your post you can do so by clicking “my account” and “edit profile” at the top of this page. For instance… my account name is clayatmtwcnashville but my posts appear as Clay at MTWC.

You are more than welcome to post more recent weather happenings if you would like. I just cut and paste from another website this information, just an FYI for everyone especially on non-weather days.
Weatherchaser, I actually like you posting the weather that happened back in the early 1900’s and further back in time, cause alot of those events, I’ve never heard of before. Thanks for posting them.
agreed. i enjoy the posts as well. i just know several (young) people on here may enjoy hearing/being reminded of events they grew up in/with. thanks for the response…
WeatherChaser…I’m a weather history nut, so keep on posting…by the way, I was 26 in 1989, so it is VERY RECENT history to me!
