Tracking humid conditions and storm chances into Thursday with drier days ahead

We are still in for humid conditions and storm chances into Thursday. I am tracking drier air and slightly warmer temperatures for the weekend.

YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA) - Happy Wednesday! Temperatures have been fantastic and trending a few degrees cooler than normal. Afternoon highs were trending in the lower 100s for most areas today.

There are chance for showers and storms being possible in the area this evening and through Thursday morning.

If any storms do develop it could lead to heavy rain, flooding, and strong winds.

We had active storms hit parts of Imperial and La Paz Counties. Take a look at the latest rainfall totals on where those storms hit.

With the severe thunderstorms that hit the Calexico and the Heber area brought heavy rain and flooding. This photo is of the Heber Kennedy’s Market gas station.

There was also strong gusty winds that came with these storms and impacted the county. Highest gust recorded in El Centro was 57 MPH. This is a photo of down power lines near the mall in Imperial County.

The humidity is staying elevated for now, but I am tracking drier air to drop down our dew points later this week.

Monsoonal moisture will be lingering around into Thursday, higher storm and flooding potential will favor toward our east and north. But there are still isolated storm chances for our area again tomorrow.

We are in for drier and less sticky conditions later this week and into the weekend.

Tracking a few clouds for the rest of the week with temperatures trending slightly cooler than normal.

Heading into the weekend we will have drier and slightly warmer weather making a return. Temperatures will heat up next week.
