We have an energetic set up in the atmosphere today to produce strong storms with the potential to turn severe. Many areas in our region have a Heat Index over 100ºF, proving the function of high heat AND humidity. That is the fuel for strong thunderstorms and possibly supercells.

“If you feel it, chase it!” After 28 years, the disaster cult classic makes a roaring comeback with its highly-anticipated sequel, Twisters. While it’s not a direct continuation of the 1996 Twister movie, it brings the same exhilarating, action-packed vibe that made the original a hit. Directed by Lee Isaac Chung, Kate Cooper (Daisy Edgar-Jones), a former storm chaser who’s been haunted by a traumatic tornado encounter, gets pulled back into the wild world of storm chasing by her friend Javi (Anthony Ramos) to test out a revolutionary tracking system. Along the way, she butts heads with Tyler Owens (Glen Powell), a charismatic storm chaser who’s gained the love and adoration of his YouTube followers. As storm season heats up, terrifying weather phenomena emerge, forcing Kate, Tyler, and their rival teams to confront erratic storm systems.

Even before the cooling rain arrived, temperatures only warmed into the upper 80s and low 90s. Not bad for late July. While showers lingered into the evening, they fade away overnight. Meanwhile, the sky remains partly to mostly cloudy with lows in the low to mid 70s.
