It appears summer has arrived right on schedule. Yesterday turned out to be a decent day in Montreal and Kemptville despite the forecast. It is a difficult forecast to make from a temperature stand point at this time of year. The temperature responds rapidly to sunshine. Yesterday for example we were expecting clouds most of the day and a high of 22C. The sun came out with less cloud cover, and we reached 26C.
This weekend we were annoyed by stationary low pressure spinning off the Atlantic coast east of Boston. The storm has produced lots of heavy rain from NYC to Halifax. It was responsible for numerous delays in the US open on Long Island, NY. Low clouds and gusty northeast winds prevailed in our area but lifted as the day progressed. Today all that is left from the low in the St. Lawrence Valley and Kemptville is the northeast winds, they will blow at 30-40km/h most of the day. It will be sunny and warm right into mid week with temperatures approaching 30C. Get the A/C ready. The next threat of any rain will be on Thursday afternoon, as the air mass heats up thunderstorms can be expected.
