Today, it is raining here.  The skies are dark grey and thick with heavy clouds and the temperatures are shaping up to be a bit cooler than expected.  I’d like to think that this weather will continue for 12 hours at least.

Region:  North Western Ohio, North Central Ohio, North Eastern Ohio and North Western Pennsylvania.

Date(s):  Tuesday July 11th and Wednesday July 12th 2017.

Deck:  The Renaissance:

Cards Drawn:  The Empress (3 of the Major Arcana),  5 of Cups (Inverse), The Emperor (4 of the Major Arcana, inverse) and 10 of swords.

Forecast:  The Empress says to me that I should expect wet conditions to continue into Tuesday but the inverted 5 of cups that also lends me the feeling that the rain will start to clear sometime during the afternoon from west to east.  Skies will begin the day ranging from mostly cloudy to cloudy with clearing following the fall off in rain, Temperatures should be between 78 and 82.  Key influences on temperature will be cloud cover, the fewer clouds the warmer the temperature the more and darker the cloud cover the cooler the temperature.  The low temps should range from 69 to 712 again cloud cover begin the key indicator.  The cloudier the skies the warmer the low.  I would expect humidity to persist through Tuesday and possibly into Wednesday.

Now Wednesday I am thinking that there may be a shift in wind direction and a increase in wind speed (10 – 20 mph)  conditions generally clearing and wind direction varying from east, south east and southerly.  Expect a warming trend to begin with temps climbing into the mid 80s (82 – 86).  There is a half chance (50/50) that a Bermuda High will try and develop.  If this turns out to be the case then hot conditions could be on tap for the weekend.  On the other hand the inverted Emperor leads me to suspect that this may be a weak system and dependent on a High pressure area to the north of the region and will pass quickly.

I hope every one has a better than average weekend.
