HEAT BUILDS THIS WEEK AS DRY WEATHER MOVES IN:
The current set-up for the next few days will bring a few showers and thunderstorms as our temperatures begin to climb. Once we get past Wednesday, we should expect our daytime highs to build into the middle 80s and for conditions to dry out.
Our weekend will bring the warmest temperatures of the season to the area as highs reach the low and middle 90s. We could see a couple of afternoon thunderstorms this weekend, but no significant chance is expected. With this in mind, our fire danger is expected to climb as we see these temperatures climb and our humidity drop.
