Joe Lundberg

AccuWeather senior meteorologist Joe Lundberg discussed the weather forecast, predicting fabulous days today and tomorrow with temperatures in the low 60s, followed by cloudy conditions and potential showers. He noted a warming trend starting Tuesday, with June expected to feel more like June. May’s rainfall is significantly above average, with nearly six inches already recorded and a potential additional inch and a half by Saturday. Lundberg attributed the excessive rainfall to stratospheric warming disrupting the jet stream and bringing cool air masses. He expects fewer weather disruptions in the coming weeks.
