A year ago today Hurricane Beryl clinched the title as the earliest forming Category 5 Atlantic Hurricane in recorded history surpassing Hurricane Emily (2005) by more than two weeks. Today the Tropical storm activity is nascent. The Hurricane Center is watching for the possibility of some storm development along the southeast coast, but the probability is low. The Gulf moisture is open to the midwest. Clouds and moisture could cause cooler than normal temperatures in portions of Texas extended up toward Oklahoma and Missouri. It looks as if much of the southern cornbelt will experience normal to cooler than normal temperatures in early to mid July while the northern cornbelt could feel normal to above normal temperatures. Scattered thunderstorms are forecast this week with more moderate storm activity forecast across the southern cornbelt next week.
