Weather forecasters are predicting a rather strong signal for above-normal temperatures in July.

We are closing out June on warm and dry note and John Bumgardner at the National Weather Service in Lincoln says the warm weather is going to carry into July.

According to Bumgardner, July rain tends to come in the form of thunderstorms and there are some years those thunderstorms will provide all the rainfall that a month will receive.

Bumgardner emphasizes the above-normal temperature signal is rather strong so anticipate some warm days over the next month.
