Temperatures will lower a couple of degrees on Saturday, but high temperatures will still run well above average with most lowland locations being at or a little above 100°F. There will be a chance for thunderstorms in area mountains. The skies will be generally clear with southeast winds 5 to 15 mph.
With the return of triple digit temperatures in the lowlands remember to stay hydrated and take plenty of breaks if your outside. Check on the elderly and your neighbors and bring your pets inside or provide plenty of shade and water for them.
Saturated soil from previous heavy rainfall, and slow storm motion will allow for greater risk of flash flooding with thunderstorms today.
We will see a chance for flash flooding due to excessive rainfall in area mountains and in the adjacent lowlands. Heavy rainfall from previous nights have left the ground saturated with water and today's storms will be slow moving leading to certain locations receiving 2 to 3+ inches of rain.
