Hey Bryce,,, do you have any idea why my area, so. Penna. on the Mason Dixon line is in a severe drought? It must be very local, we haven't had rain for a month now, 100 plus degrees now with only t-storms in sight. I have never seen such a melt down like this. Suppose to be over 100 today. If this was wide spread corn would be $10 a bushel. Any hope for us?

Jay, your area has been the center of upper-air ridging that the Euro model kept trying to bring farther west into the Ohio Valley. It's been a powerful ridge for sure. We do look for this ridge to switch its focus more to the southeastern part of the country during the next five days and that should allow for some milder temperatures along with some showers for the mid-Atlantic region.
