Plight of a closed Low

Look closely and there is still one closed isobar in northern Texas. This enigmatic feature truly has a mind of its own. For the past several days this feature has been responsible for kicking off some heavy localized showers and t-storms and once again for tomorrow, its likely to do it again. Looking upstream though, the same trough that we recently talked about is progressing nicely across the country. Rain chances will carry into the first part of the week as this system drapes through, though we then look to get under a ridge towards the end of the week which ought to make it feel exactly like summer right around the solstice, which is on Saturday.

I still pose the question... when will we crack 100F?

Perhaps a little contest is in order. Stay tuned for more on this.
