Summer-like temperatures stick around this weekend

What We’re Tracking

• Heat Advisory in effect
• Very hot weekend
• Dry start to the week

An upper-level ridge is settling over the area, bringing dry and sunny weather through the weekend. Saturday's temperatures may top out a few degrees warmer, but humidity will scale back a touch. Either way, the heat index will once again be near 105° during the peak of afternoon heating. A Heat Advisory is in effect throughout the day today.

The summer-like stretch continues into Sunday, with highs holding in the middle 90s, heat indices around 100°-105°, and only minimal chances for rain. Over the next few days, remember to stay cool, stay hydrated, limit outdoor activities, and try to stay in the shade as much as possible.

Relief returns Tuesday throughout the rest of the week. Storms return to the area Tuesday afternoon/evening allowing temperatures to drop into the upper 80s for a much more comfortable rest of the week.
