Discussion
The week will start off with comfortable temperatures in the NYC metro region, but an approaching cold front will result in scattered showers this morning and mid-day and possible PM thunderstorms...some of the storms can be on the strong side. Another cold front will pass through at mid-week ushering in more comfortable air for the northeastern part of the nation. At the same time the Northeast US/Great Lakes enjoys comfortable weather conditions, much of the western US will experience excessive heat as upper-level high pressure ridging expands and intensifies over that part of the nation. Elsewhere, it looks like the Gulf of Mexico will feature a tropical system by late this week or early this weekend and it may ultimately head towards Louisiana.
