...Gusty Thunderstorms with Small Hail and Cold Air Funnel Clouds
through Early Tonight...

Gusty thunderstorms capable of producing cold air funnel clouds
and small hail are forecast through early tonight. These cold air
funnels are developing underneath thunderstorms that are moving
across the area. Underneath these showers...spinning columns of
air that look like tornadoes may continue to develop. These
funnels usually are very brief and rarely touch the ground. If
these funnels do touch down...they most likely will not cause
damage to life or property.

Cold air funnels are due to very cool air aloft...warm moist air
near the ground...and are usually in association with a strong
area of low pressure in the upper levels of the atmosphere. Due to
little or no wind shear...they are usually weak and very brief.

Two more days of summer, then fall arrives

A large upper-level ridge centered over the middle of the country will keep record heat around through Wednesday. Fall-lovers, get ready! The first big cold front of the season is set to arrive on Thursday, sending temperatures plummeting through the end of the week.Ìý

While a strong cold front often signals rain, that likely won’t be the case with this front. Additional cloud cover is expected with the front, but unfortunately, not much in the way of rain.Ìý

The big cold front drops temperatures in the afternoon back to around 80 Thursday afternoon, but Friday, temperatures will only peak in the low to mid 70s.Ìý

Another cold front is expected towards the second half of the weekend and it provides a chance for a few showers as well.Ìý

Meteorologist Nick Hausen has the latest forecast on News 3.
