In addition the combined May and June totals are also given along with how these two consecutive months ranked in terms of historical wetness for two consecutive months.

As for the upcoming week our weather for most us should be dry weather through Wednesday. In addition it looks like another spell of haze, heat and oppressive humidity., perhaps even another heat wave. The 90° plus temperatures should commence on Sunday and last through Thursday. Also by next Thursday the threat for storms and showers returns to the region as a low pressure area and associated cold front approach the area. Depending on exactly when these systems move across the area on this day will determine whether or not we have any (widespread) severe weather. Whether the storms are severe or not is yet to be determined but I feel fairly confident that the prospects for locally heavy rain on Thursday,thanks to the amount of moisture that will be "over" us.
