Heatwave Continues with Tropical Storms on the Horizon
Sunday marked the hottest day of the year so far, with record-breaking temperatures across many areas. A tropical wave moving across the Gulf has a 60% chance of development, potentially becoming Tropical Storm GERT. While it will bring much-needed rainfall to parts of south Texas, areas further north will only experience scattered rain bands. The Atlantic Basin is also seeing increased tropical activity, with two named storms, Emily and Franklin, and several other areas with potential for development. Tropical Storm Hilary is bringing heavy rainfall to Southern California and Nevada. The 10-day forecast predicts continued triple-digit heat before a change in weather pattern brings widespread rain and lower temperatures next week.
