Summer like weather will take hold of the region as we move through the weekend and into next week. Highs will warm into the mid to upper 80s each day and lows will warm from the 60s this morning into the low to mid 70s by early next week. Scattered afternoon showers and thunderstorms can also be expected each day starting on Sunday.
Tropical Weather Outlook indicating no tropical cyclone activity for the next 7 days. Did you know that even through hurricane season doesn't officially start until June 1, the National Hurricane Center starts issuing tropical weather outlooks (TWOs) on May 15? The first one came out today, thankfully indicating quiet conditions. The TWO will continue to be issued through November 30 four times a day by 7am/pm and 1am/pm CDT and 6am/pm (or 6am/pm and 12am/pm CST). As we approach the start of hurricane season, now is a good time to make sure you have plans in place for how you will take action if a hurricane threatens our area.
