Tonight's Forecast

Late Summer Wildfire Threat Continues

Today's Records and Climate Data

Tropical air and very warm temperatures may produce intense rainfall at times as storm motion will be slow to the west. An inch or two of rainfall may fall in short order and bring a localized flooding threat on dry soil.

Low temperatures tonight will range from the lower to mid 70s across the region. Ongoing showers and thunderstorms this afternoon will linger into the overnight hours before diminishing.

Despite some recent rainfall, flash drought conditions continue across the entire Four State Region. As a result, much of the region remains under a Burn Ban at this time.

Here are today's climate records for selected sites across our Four-State area.
