Cortland Weather Outlook: Tuesday, August 11

Your Cortland County weather forecast for Tuesday, August 11, 2020:

A front will approach the region late in the day, but not until temperatures soar once again.

Sunny skies this morning will gradually mix with the typical fair-weather summertime clouds. Skies will continue to be a mix of sun and clouds through the afternoon.

Winds will be from the southwest at around 10 mph with gusts reaching 20-25 mph.

Dewpoints will be a touch lower than yesterday, but it will still be plenty muggy. High temperatures will add a couple of degrees, reaching the upper 80s to perhaps near 90.

Late in the afternoon, after 4 PM, will come the first chances for rain as a broken line of showers and light thunderstorms attempts to pop up. How much these are able to develop is questionable.

At most, expect a relatively brief round of rain around dinnertime, possibly with some rumbles of thunder. However, it may not rain at all.

Another chance for rain will come this evening as a second area of precipitation flares up. Again, how robust this becomes is rather questionable and not all areas will see rain.

Here is a look at the weather for the next several days:

Wednesday: Partly cloudy. Maybe a few scattered showers and storms, especially early. Morning lows in the upper 60s. Afternoon highs in the low 80s.

Thursday: Sun and clouds. Morning lows in the low 60s. Afternoon highs in the mid 80s.

Friday: Partly cloudy. Morning lows in the mid 60s. Afternoon highs in the mid 80s.

Saturday: Sun and clouds. Morning lows in the low 60s. Afternoon highs in the low 80s.
