EvansvilleWatch Forecast for Tuesday, August 21st, 2012


Warnings, Watches, and Advisories: None

MAYBE A SHOWER: Looking to be mostly sunny today with highs in the mid-80s. We have, however, seen some clouds move in this morning, so we can’t rule out the chance of an isolated shower or two this morning. Overnight tonight, skies looking to be mostly clear with lows in the mid-50s.

WARM UP: High pressure moves in for a few days and takes over our weather. Sunny skies for Wednesday with highs in the upper 80s, but some lower 90s can’t be ruled out. Thursday and Friday look to be sunny to mostly sunny with highs in the lower 90s. Overnight on Wednesday and Thursday, skies will stay clear with lows in the lower 60s for both nights.

WEEKEND: Saturday looks to be on the dry side for most of the day, but a shower or two is possible for some locations around the Tri-State. Overall mostly sunny skies with highs in the low 90s. We are watching a cold front that will be moving on Monday. Before the front gets here, we have an isolated chance of rain for late Sunday Night. During the day, however, skies stay mostly sunny in the lower 90s. Monday gives us our best chance of rain with partly sunny skies and highs in the upper 80s.

SEVERE WEATHER RISK: No severe weather is forecasted for Sunday or Monday, but we might have a storm or two on the strong side.

TROPICAL UPDATE: Gordon is now in the history books. The NHC stopped putting out advisories for him last night. We know have Tropical Depression Nine and this is the one that might become Isaac. At the 5AM AST Advisory, it was located 715 miles East of the Leeward Islands, winds at 35MPH, moving West at 20MPH, and pressure was at 29.74”. Tropical Storm Warnings and Watches are already out. Forecast track has this becoming a tropical storm later today and a hurricane by Thursday. As for where this will hit, latest models have this hitting near the Florida, Georgia area along the East Coast, but still too early to tell right now. Two more systems in the Atlantic to talk about. System one is about 380 miles Southwest of the Cape Verde Islands, moving West at 15MPH, and has a 50% chance of becoming a tropical cyclone in the next 48 hours. System two is what was Tropical Storm Helene. Currently right now over the far Western Gulf of Mexico and not moving that much. Has about a 30% chance of becoming a tropical cyclone, again, and if it does it will have a different name.

EVANSVILLE CLIMATE DATA: Monday’s high was 85, low was 55, and precipitation total was 0.00”.  First forecast high was 81, and then changed later in the afternoon to 85. Average high for today is 88 and average low is 65. Records are 101 in 1983 and 49 in 1950. Sunset tonight is at 7:35PM and sunrise on Wednesday at 6:12AM.
