Friday Looking Ahead 28 Days July 22, 2022

July 23, 2022Posted inweatherNo Comments

First half of 28-Day Forecast Period is wetter than the second half. But it is hot throughout the 28-Day Forecast Period.

NOAA updates many of their weather outlooks and in many cases issues a discussion with those outlooks. On Fridays, they issue a week 3 – 4 outlook which is farther out than the typical 10-day forecast and the discussion is excellent. So we have decided to issue a weekly special report on Fridays.

When the Week 3-4 Outlook is issued, we have a 28-day view of the future. It is important to recognize that the predictions do not always work out as predicted but in the article, there are links to obtain updated predictions.

It is somewhat surprising that there is as much difference between the first 14 days and the second 14 days of the 28-Day Forecast Period.  The North American Monsoon is strong throughout the 28-Day Forecast Period. It is stronger at the beginning and slowly returns towards what is a normal Monsoon.  Heat will be a hazard.
