It is june 7th today (Western Virginia) the past few days and the next week are really hot and humid beyond belief the dew point was in the low 70's and the high's are in the mid 90's in some places. It is so humid that I can feel the moisture in my hands when I step outside. However I remember a lot of days like this meant strong thunderstorms later on and sometimes that was a relief. However the last few days there was not a drop of rain and nothing showed up on the doppler. I was wondering why if all the elements to form thunderstorms (moisture, high dew point, heat) is there why aren't there any thunderstorms forming? I saw a lot of cumulus clouds becoming really puffy and some were forming into cumulus congestus but thats it. Is the atmosphere too stable? What makes an atmosphere stable vs. unstable? What causes it? How do you measure it?
