Summer Makes a Comeback in August, According to Weather Forecasters (30 degrees predicted)
The upcoming week promises a mix of showers and summer-like temperatures across the country. According to meteorologists, the summer is expected to last until at least August 13, with temperatures climbing up to 30 degrees in many areas.
This week begins with showers and local thunderstorms in large parts of the country. Strong showers are expected to move into the country again on Tuesday, with substantial rainfall anticipated in the afternoon. Some regions may start Tuesday quite friendly, but dark clouds will move in later in the afternoon.
Meteorologists predict a return of summer for August, with above-normal temperatures expected across much of the U.S., especially in the Northwest. The East Coast sees a weaker but still positive tilt toward warmer temperatures. The Southeast and Mid-Atlantic show more variability due to rainfall chances potentially tempering heat.
No statements can be made with 100% certainty 24 hours in advance due to the changeable conditions. However, the situation is expected to improve after Tuesday, as the disturbances will clear up and make way for a high-pressure area. This high-pressure area will initially raise temperatures to 24 degrees, but by Friday at the latest, temperatures are expected to reach up to 30 degrees nationwide.
In the south of the country, temperatures could reach up to 35 degrees. Citizens are encouraged to enjoy the warm days as much as possible, as nighttime temperatures are expected to remain above 20 degrees, indicating tropical nights.
Meteorologists warn that the summer is unstable, making accurate forecasts unreliable. They advise keeping an eye on local weather updates for the most accurate information.
