It was a very stormy Monday night for northern Illinois, as a derecho swept through, touching nearly every location in the state. Here’s hoping that things return to Normal in the Bloomington area soon.

At 956AM, CT, Bloomington was reporting clear skies and a temperature of 60 degrees, a pleasant morning in the middle of what has been a warm, wet summer. Flow aloft is weak across the country, which will allow things to warm up under the sun, but humidity through the day should remain comfortable.
High pressure will continue to hold through today and to start the weekend on Saturday, however an upper level trough is then expected to rotate in from the Upper Midwest. A mostly disorganized batch of energy will tap into the Gulf of Mexico, pulling in a steady rise in moisture, and contributing to clouds and the potential for a few isolated storms on Sunday evening. These storms won’t match those seen on Monday, instead functioning as weak pop up cells that will end afternoon picnics a bit early.

Look at me, Mr. Negative. I do have warmer temperatures, because it’s July and the sun is out, and I am the only outlet with rain in the forecast. It’s been so wet, why slow down now? Satellite imagery is pretty clear.
