A look ahead
High pressure should keep us hot and dry Friday and Saturday. We're mostly sunny Friday and partly sunny Saturday with highs at least in the upper 80s to low 90s, perhaps as hot as the low to mid-90s. Humidity is up a bit but still on the low side (dew points near 60) of typical summer standards. Friday and Saturday night lows settle in the mid-60s to low 70s, with a shower or storm chance Saturday night. Confidence: Medium-High
There is potential for scattered showers and thunderstorms at some point on Sunday as a cold front arrives. Highs are somewhere in the 80s to near 90 with a bit more of a humid feel. Confidence: Low-Medium
Models are mixed as to whether rain chances linger Monday and Tuesday, or if high pressure wins out and we stay dry. Either way we should be somewhat cooler with highs in the 70s to near 80.
