Cooler Temps and Storm Chances This Weekend

Partly cloudy skies and very warm temperatures are expected today. Look for highs to hit the mid to upper 90s. Increasing warmth and moisture will bump up instability this afternoon, popping up a few isolated storms. Still, most of us look to stay dry. Saturday will be warm and muggy, before a cold front pulls in at night. Showers and thunderstorms are likely to develop along the front and move southeast overnight. Depending on how early the storms get going, some could be strong to severe in our area. Large hail and damaging winds are the primary threat. Behind the front, we’ll clear things out and cool things down on Sunday. Look for sunshine and highs in the mid to upper 80s through Monday. Much of next week will likely be partly cloudy and dry. Temperatures will hit the upper 80s through Saturday.
