SUMMARY: The weather will start off comfortable in the morning and midday, but rain and thunderstorm chances will increase in the afternoon and evening. Temperatures will be similar to yesterday, with highs in the lower 80s. Winds will start to increase as a disturbance approaches from the Gulf of Mexico. Cloud cover will increase throughout the day, with a potential for rainfall across the Gulf Coast. The disturbance is not expected to become a tropical storm or hurricane, but it may bring some rainfall and winds to the area. The temperature will drop over the weekend before warming up again next week.

Drier air and surface high pressure remains favorable for strong diurnal influences which have resulted in temps dipping a little lower than forecast, but should rebound comfortably into the mid-80s by afternoon. High pressure moving east will allow for increased moisture advection and large scale atmospheric lift by tonight. Eyes again shift upstream where a surface low will be moving northward across the western Gulf of Mexico from the start of the long term period. The surface low will eventually merge with a surface stationary frontal boundary along the Gulf Coast. As the surface low interacts with the higher pressure downstream of our area, low level pressure gradient will tighten allowing for an increase in winds, especially over the local waters where Gale conditions are becoming increasingly likely.

SUMMARY: The completion of the two Woolmarket roundabouts has been delayed once again by MDOT, now expected to finish by summer 2025 instead of winter 2024. Councilman David Shoemaker reports ongoing complaints regarding the construction, citing issues such as uneven surfaces and eroding road edges. The project has faced interruptions, with periods of inactivity leaving roads in poor condition. Recent problems, including grade issues causing ponding on the roadway, necessitate tearing out the existing curb and laying new asphalt, contributing to further delays. Citizens remain frustrated, demanding transparency and swift resolution to the prolonged construction issues.
