Summer Edging Back


The pattern of steering winds we experienced last week with frequent cool fronts and cooler air has shifted to a more typical summer pattern favoring hot weather over the nation's mid-section and cool fronts staying more north closer to the jet stream winds. This will mean we have several opportunities to reach ninety or higher this week.

Fronts which "backdoor" the Ozarks, those that slide in from the north or even east, will have to watched for showers and thunderstorms which may tone down the building heat a tad on days they are observed.
