“Anyway You Want It”
– 1980 single by Journey
6:30 AM 7/23/12 (Forecaster Mike) – There’s quite a bit of
variety across the country as we head into our Monday so you can really have
the weather “Anyway you want it”! However, many of you are probably living in a
place where the weather is not cooperating with your wishes. Still, someone
across the country is probably experiencing your desired weather day. The big
exception here is for the powderhounds who are even looking for a bit of snow
in the middle of July!

Sick of me yet? |
HOT HOT HOT – If hot is the way you want your weather, there
is certainly plenty of that across the country! The heat is again centered
around the Kansas City metro region, although much of the Plains region is
sweltering under 100º+ heat! On the other side of Missouri, St. Louis has had
quite the share of heat! For the first 22 Days of July, only 1 single day (July
20th) had a below average high temperature. In addition, 6 different
days in the month so far have set daily records for the location! If that isn’t
enough, St. Louis has not seen temperatures drop below 70º once since June 27th!

St. Louis Temperature Data for July 2012 to date |
SEVERE STORMS GALORE – It really isn’t “galore”, but there
are some areas where we may have to be on the lookout for some severe weather
this Monday! This might be for you if you are the type of person who loves to
watch the storms roll through, although the most severe storms are not fun for
anyone. The Storm Prediction Center has highlighted areas across the Great
Lakes region as potential spots for severe weather. This includes the Northeast Ohio zone under the “Slight” Risk category. While this region of the
country isn’t close to the most desperate drought situation, we could even use
the rain here!

Temperatures for the Pacific Northwest |
WHERE’S THE COOL? -
While the cool weather is the toughest to find across the country today, we can
find in in the corners of the country. Much of the Pacific Northwest, including
the Seattle zone is experiencing some quite cool weather as clouds cover a
portion, and cool air seeps down elsewhere. The other place to find the cold
weather is in Maine, the only state in the country that is completely drought
free!
Have a wonderful week!
